WikiLeaks: U.S. Discussed Ways to Oust Zimbabwe’s Mugabe

HeadlineDec 13, 2010

While WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange remains in jail, the whistleblowing website continues to release classified U.S. diplomatic cables. The latest batch of cables show that the Clinton administration considered removing Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe from office 10 years ago. A secret cable from November 2000 reveals then U.S. Assistant Secretary Susan Rice and Zimbabwe opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai discussed a number of possible ways to push out Mugabe, who has led Zimbabwe since its independence from Britain three decades ago.
