Zimbabwe: Tsvangirai's ministers boycott meetings

The Zimbabwean reports Zimbabwean Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai's cabinet ministers launched a boycott of cabinet meetings Monday and said they were 'disengaging' from the coalition government with President Robert Mugabe created earlier this year.

Deputy prime minister Thokozani Khupe announced the move after Mugabe, apparently due to leave the country on Tuesday for a trip abroad, rescheduled Tuesday's regular cabinet meeting to Monday - apparently in order to avoid Tsvangirai chairing it.

Khupe said Mugabe and his Zanu-PF party were 'dishonest and unreliable' partners.
