World leaders call for Zimbabwes Mugabe to step down



As cholera spreads through Zimbabwe and the humanitarian situation worsens, world leaders — including U.S. President Bush — are calling for President Robert Mugabe to step down.

Many African countries have been slow to criticize the Zimbabwean leader, but Kenya recently called for foreign intervention.
A spokesman for Mugabe claimed that the U.S. and United Kingdom are planning to invade Zimbabwe.
