Zimbabwe condemns wider sanctions
By Africa correspondent Sally Sara

Zimbabwe has reacted angrily to the strengthening of
sanctions by the United States and Australia.

Zimbabwean Information Minister Jonathan Moyo has
condemned the sanctions and says they will not have
any affect.

Mr Moyo says the US can "go to hell".

He says US officials are imperialists who would not
know democracy if it "hit them in the face".

A spokesman for President Robert Mugabe has also
accused Australia of taking senseless action against
Zimbabwe.

The Federal Government has extended travel
restrictions to include senior officials from
Zimbabwe's state-owned companies.

Foreign Minister Alexander Downer says the Australia
has strengthened the sanctions because of its growing
concern about the plight of the people of Zimbabwe.
