The Zanu PF youth league has described the main opposition party as a terror group bent on collapsing the country via campaigning for sanctions. He went on to say plans to enact laws that criminalise campaigning for sanctions are already in place.
Speaking to Zim Morning post-Togarepi said:
MDC is a party of terrorists, the party has committed terrorism by asking for sanctions from the West and America (United States of America), these people should be punished severely by the state,
They are using illegal sanctions and violent demonstrations to destabilise the economy and the peace which is currently prevailing in the country, their are motive is to enter in Government via the back door
I have since asked Minister of Justice if it is possible to come up with laws which criminalise the act of asking for sanctions against Zimbabwe
Zimbabwe has been under economic sanctions since the explosive land redistribution program in 2002.
