Zimbabwe: Government Treasury Bonds to be Paid to White Farmers, Two Decades After Forced Land Seizures

Last Thursday, Zimbabwe's Minister of Finance Mthuli Ncube declared that his government is slowly making progress in settling a dispute with white farmers who had their farms forcibly seized through President Banana's land reform policy in the 1980s. The policy continued through the reign of Robert Mugabe, who claimed the policy aimed to alter the ethnic balance of land ownership.
