Mugabe 'to hold talks with rival'

Zimbabwe's opposition leader said he is due to hold talks with President Robert Mugabe "within this coming week" to try to resolve the political crisis.

Morgan Tsvangirai said he was returning to Zimbabwe from South Africa, and stressed he was still committed to an "inclusive" government in Zimbabwe.

He described Mr Mugabe as "part of the problem but also part of the solution".

Disputes over who should control the most powerful ministries have stalled last September's power-sharing deal.
