Stalemate on key Cabinet posts
From Times Wire Reports
President Robert Mugabe and opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai failed to settle differences in talks over the finance and home affairs ministries in a new Zimbabwean government.
The two men met, along with Arthur Mutambara, leader of a smaller faction of the opposition Movement for Democratic Change, to try to break the deadlock over Cabinet posts that threatens a power-sharing deal.
Officials said Mugabe and Tsvangirai were expected to meet again early this week.
