US sanctions target Mugabe
news.bbc.co.uk

The United States has announced it is imposing economic sanctions on President Robert Mugabe and 76 other government officials in Zimbabwe.

Washington accuses them of undermining democracy and using violence to stifle political opposition.

The executive order signed by US President George W Bush freezes the assets of those involved, and bars Americans from having any financial dealings with them.

The US sanctions mark an escalation of the visa restrictions on officials announced by President Bush last March following Mr Mugabe's controversial re-election last year.
