Zimbabwe's Tsvangirai rejects unity government
Zimbabwe's opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai rejected calls on Tuesday for a national unity government instead of a presidential runoff vote and said his party was sure to win the election despite government violence.

Tsvangirai told a news conference Zimbabwe had suffered a de facto coup and was being run by a military junta.
Problem is, the military isn't going to respect the results of the election.
Some 66 supporters of his Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) had been killed since disputed March elections, he said.

Simba Makoni, a defector from the ruling ZANU-PF party and a former finance minister, said earlier the June 27 run-off between President Robert Mugabe and Tsvangirai must be called off because a free and fair vote was impossible. "Following the announcement of the date for the run-off, no one can change that due process unless Robert Mugabe concedes defeat, or collapses. It therefore means that a government of national unity negotiated before the runoff does not arise," Tsvangirai said.
