Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe has accused opposition party members of planning to oust him. War is increasingly likely there, experts say. Tsvangirayi Mukwazhi/AP/FileFrom CNN:
HARARE, Zimbabwe (CNN) -- The man who would be Zimbabwe's prime minister under a power-sharing pact said Friday his party will withdraw from efforts to implement the unity government unless 42 abducted members of his party are freed by New Year's Day.
The threat comes as President Mugabe apologized to Zimbabweans for the economic crisis that led Zimbabwe's central bank on Friday to introduce a $10 billion note worth less than $20 in U.S. currency.
Opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai said Mugabe and his ZANU-PF party have "willfully and repeatedly broken the letter and the spirit" of the agreement signed in September, while his Movement for Democratic Change, or MDC, party has "shown patience, political maturity and willingness to make significant concessions."
