Harare - Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe said on Monday he expected a unity government to be formed by the end of this week after an impasse following the signature of an outline deal with the opposition.

"We discussed the ministries before I left. Only four remain, but there is no deadlock. We will be setting up government this week, towards the end of the week," Mugabe told reporters when he returned home from a UN General Assembly meeting.
