Robert Mugabe appointed UN ‘leader for tourism’

He added: “Robert Mugabe is under international sanctions, so how do you
have an international tourism ambassador who can’t travel to other countries?

Mr Mugabe’s spokesman Rugare Gumbo said that the “situation on the ground
in Zimbabwe is not as bad as portrayed”.

Mr Mugabe and his aides are subject to an EU travel ban that prevents him from
travelling to EU countries. Navi Pillay, the UN human rights chief, last
week urged Western countries to suspend sanctions against Mr Mugabe and his
close aides to give Zimbabwe a chance to implement much needed reforms.

“I would urge those countries that are currently applying sanctions on
Zimbabwe to suspend them, at least until the conduct of the elections and
related reforms are clear,” she said in Harare after a five-day visit.

“Sanctions should be entirely suspended for people to entirely focus on
economic issues that need to be addressed.”
