Minister denies loan to Zimbabwe

South African Foreign Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma has denied news reports this week that South Africa has given Zimbabwe a loan of about US $126 million.

"At the moment no loan to Zimbabwe has been made," Dlamini-Zuma told journalists. "The agreement we reached was that the relevant ministers will go into in-depth discussion with their counterparts and see what can be done."
