 JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (AP) - Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe dismissed claims Friday that his rule was in its final throes while a longtime opponent renewed calls for a peaceful campaign to oust him.
The government warned foreign and local correspondents about their coverage of unrest in the country, threatening action against Zimbabwean journalists and singling out CNN for what it called biased reporting.
Mugabe, addressing women and youth from the ruling party in Harare, denied opposition claims that his people and forces were no longer loyal and his government was nearing its end, state television reported. He said that at his age and with his experience, he could not be pushed out.
