"Mr President, in one minute you can say very little but I concur with what Mr van Orden, Mrs Kinnock and many of the other speakers have said. I was in what was then Rhodesia in the 1960s and there was a great deal of injustice in that country at that time. We had such great hopes for President Mugabe. We thought we had in him a liberal, serious, intelligent leader. Unfortunately, as we see the developing chaos and threats of famine and the destruction of the economy, we can but mourn the fact that he did not fulfil the hopes we had of him.
I agree that the smart sanctions are the way to go, because already the ordinary people of Zimbabwe are suffering grievously, as they watch their country disintegrate into chaos. I urge all colleagues to support this resolution."@en1
