The US has lifted its two-decade-old unilateral and illegal sanctions program on Zimbabwe, opting instead for targeted sanctions on specific individuals and entities, including President Emmerson Mnangagwa. Zimbabwe stands as one of the most sanctioned countries in the world, as the Western powers seek to destabilize the country to punish the country for resisting their influence. Rutendo Matinyarare joins the show to explain that while the removal of the Executive Order sanctions is a “huge achievement” for Zimbabwe, the US may be preparing to sanction South Africa, which could have a devastating impact on the region. Matinyarare is the Chairperson of Zimbabwe Anti-Sanctions Movement (ZASM) and founder of Zimbabweans Unite Against US War Sanctions (ZUAUWS).
