Berlin : The German government here Wednesday reiterated its lack of understanding and concern over the slow paced vote in Zimbabwe .
Speaking at regular weekly press briefing, deputy foreign ministry spokesman Andreas Peschke said dragging on the vote count was “not understandable” and would only lead “understandably to speculations” in the south African country.
The federal government insists on a “speedy and transparent vote count” and announcement of the election result.
“The internal political stalemate (in Zimbabwe) has to stop,” Peschke said.
He urged those responsible in the African country to deal “responsibly” with the election outcome and to refrain from using violence.
Peschke called also for decisive steps to overcome “the catastrophic situation” and improve the living conditions of Zimbabweans.
