IMF welcomes Zanzibar "reconciliation"

    NAIROBI

    The IMF representative told IRIN that while the Fund had no
    Zanzibar-specific conditionalities on good governance, the IMF - and the donor community in general - took heart from this month's initialling of a reconciliation agreement between the governing Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM, the Revolutionary Party of Tanzania) and the opposition Civic United Front (CUF). The IMF "welcomes any moves towards patching up differences and
    solving political difficulties that are dragging things down". "We do hope it's a genuine resolution - Zanzibar cannot afford to be without donor support," Tsikata told IRIN.
