Zim not excluded in summit
13/04/2007 17:33 - (SA)
Pretoria - Zimbabwe's political unrest will not lead to the country being excluded in the Africa-European summit to be held in Portugal in December, said Foreign Affairs Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma on Friday.
"The African position doesn't insist on anything except that the African Union (AU) cannot be dismembered.
"The African Union is the African Union. We can't say we want to co-operate with the EU but not with Portugal. Just as the EU cannot say we want to co-operate with the AU but not with Zimbabwe," she said.
Zimbabwe is one of the 53 African countries that form the AU.
Dlamini-Zuma was hosting her Portuguese counterpart Luis Amado for bilateral and economic discussions in Pretoria.
Both parties verbally agreed on more co-operations in business and cultural matters.
