"As far as I'm concerned SADC must make those Zimbabweans reach an agreement," Zuma told Reuters after a speech to the Cape Town Press Club. "They must force them." The 15-Nation SADC (Southern African Development Community) is due to meet in Johannesburg on Sunday to try and solve an impasse between President Robert Mugabe and opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai over allocating cabinet posts under a power-sharing deal they reached in September. "I believe that the Zimbabwean matter does not end within the borders of Zimbabwe, it impacts on all of us and for that reason we must force them to stop making us feel the impact," said Zuma, who is front-runner to become the president of South Africa in next year's election. Past meetings of regional heads of state have failed to produce a breakthrough and there were fresh signs that the parties may face another round of difficult negotiations. Tsvangirai's MDC said on Thursday Mugabe's ZANU-PF party had put a "full stop" to negotiations on forming a government by carrying out what it said was widespread violence and suggested it should admit that it had no intention of sharing power. South Africa's government said on Thursday it would take a tough stand at the summit over Zimbabwe. This was a sharp change from the style of former President Thabo Mbeki, whose softly-softly approach as official southern African mediator has been criticized as ineffective. ECONOMIC CRISIS Zimbabwe's economic crisis has forced millions of its citizens to flee the country, with an estimated three million Zimbabweans in neighboring South Africa alone. Ties between Zimbabwe and neighboring Botswana have also become strained after Botswana's President Seretse Khama Ian Khama said earlier this week that a new election was the only solution to the crisis. Botswana said on Friday that Zimbabwean authorities had accused it of interfering in its affairs and training opposition supporters to destabilize the country. "The government of Botswana dismissed the Zimbabwean allegation as false, baseless, and completely unfounded. The government of Botswana further requested that the government of Zimbabwe provides documented evidence on the allegations," Botswana government spokesman Jeff Ramsay said in a statement. Establishing a unity government is seen as critical to reversing economic meltdown in Zimbabwe, where inflation is officially 231 million percent. Even under government price controls, the cost of bread is doubling every week. Zimbabweans are struggling to survive amid widespread shortages of meat, milk and other basic commodities as a result of the collapse of the agricultural sector. The country is dependent on food handouts and malnutrition is on the rise. Tsvangirai, who would become prime minister under the power-sharing deal, has accused Mugabe's ruling ZANU-PF of trying to seize the lion's share of important ministries in order to relegate the MDC to the role of junior partner.
