The Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, Maite Nkoana-Mashabane, has urged for an increase in assistance for Zimbabwe so that the country can reconstruct itself.

Nkoana-Mashabane says South Africa is committed to developing normal diplomatic relations with Zimbabwe.“We shall continue to work with the people of Zimbabwe for the full implementation of the Global Political Agreement," she says.

Her call comes at the time when rights group, Amnesty International secretary-general, Irene Khan, reported that “persistent and serious human rights violations continue” in Zimbabwe.
