Zimbabwe Seeks Debt Relief to Deal with COVID Economic Impact

Columbus Mavhunga

   HARARE - Zimbabwe is seeking talks with foreign creditors to clear
   decades of debt, warning that without more funds the cash-strapped
   government may not cope with the economic impact from COVID-19.
   Zimbabwe's struggling economy has further slumped due to the lockdown
   over the coronavirus. But critics of the request note Zimbabwe's
   history of corruption and failure to service its debt.
