Zimbabwe has learnt valuable lessons from the illegal sanctions imposed on the country by the United States and its allies, President Mnangagwa has said.
In his keynote address today as the country commemorates the SADC-initiated Anti Sanction Day, President Mnangagwa said Harare takes comfort from the solidarity it gets from other countries in the region and beyond.
“Despite the effects of illegal sanctions, our national economy has been on a positive growth trajectory. Under the Second Republic, we continue to register notable increases in foreign currency earnings, marked by export receipts, diaspora remittances and foreign direct investment flows,” said President Mnangagwa.
The President also launched a book titled “Standing Against Illegal Sanctions, Resistance, Policy Innovations and Advocacy”, which was written by various academics.
He described the book as well thought out and researched, offering insightful perspectives from diverse sectors
“The book documents our resilience, showcases our policy innovations and the ongoing advocacy against the illegal sanctions. Further, it captures key highlights of the transformative policy ingenuity implemented by the Second Republic to mitigate the impact of sanctions,” said President Mnangagwa.
