Foreign minister Frederick Shava courts new partners in Ankara and New Dehli to circumvent sanctions

摘要

Since his appointment in February, Zimbabwe's foreign minister has been concentrating on cultivating closer relations with Turkey and India to complement the country's longstanding alliances with China and Russia and lessen the impact of Western sanctions. Contending with a Western bloc that is showing little willingness to lift sanctions on President Emmerson Mnangagwa's ZANU-PF party, Zimbabwe's foreign minister Frederick Shava is seeking new trading partners.
