              Mugabe Threatens Foreign-Owned Firms Over Sanctions

   Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe has threatened to take retaliatory
   actions against foreign owned companies in response to Western
   sanctions against his rule.
   During a speech at a funeral Sunday, Mr. Mugabe said the United States
   and Britain should not continue their harassment of his government.
   The 89-year-old leader warned that although British and American
   companies have been treated well, their will come a time when Zimbabwe
   says "tit-for-tat, you hit me I hit you".
   Mr. Mugabe has rejected allegations of irregularities over last month`s
   general election that extended his 33-year rule.
   He has vowed to continue with controversial plans to force foreign
   companies to cede control to black Zimbabweans.
