Zimbabwe under Mugabe and 40 years of aid failure

Canadian senator Peter Stollery discusses with Toronto's TVO a senatorial committee report titled "40 Years of Failure: What Happened ? The Senate Report on Sub-Saharan Africa". Stollery was co-chair of the committe that produced the report lamenting how development assistance by the West has let down Africa for the past 40 years.
In the second segment of the programme, a panel discusses the Zimbabwean situation. Interesting to note is the consensus coalescing internationally that Zimbabweans and to some extent Africans should solve their problems and not the West. [Watch The Video]
