Pretoria - The Presidency denied media reports on Thursday that President Thabo Mbeki would be leaving for Zimbabwe later in the day to try and salvage power-sharing talks.

"These reports are absolutely baseless, He is definitely not going today," said presidential spokesperson Mukoni Ratshitanga.

Ratshitanga said if Mbeki was to depart for Zimbabwe to resume talks at a later stage, an announcement would be made at that time.

On Thursday, The Times reported that Movement for Democratic Change spokesperson George Sibotshiwe had told the newspaper the party had been informed Mbeki would be in Harare on Thursday to meet with them and negotiators from the ruling Zanu-PF.
