Zambia demanded the complete elimination of sanctions against Zimbabwe during remarks at the Mid-Term Review of bilateral cooperation talks in Harare. Permanent Secretary Etambuyu Gundersen emphasized Zambia's support for removing all unilateral measures that harm Zimbabwe's economic recovery and regional development. The statement preceded next month's SADC Anti-Sanctions Day commemorations on October 25. While the European Union has lifted most restrictions, the United States maintains sanctions on President Mnangagwa, First Lady Auxillia Mnangagwa, and nine other individuals plus three entities. The two-day review session evaluated progress on cooperation agreements and memoranda of understanding between the neighboring countries.

Officials highlighted advances in defense, trade, and tourism sectors during the commission meeting. Ambassador Albert Chimbindi noted successful collaboration between security forces and the establishment of joint operations. The proposed Zambia-Zimbabwe Joint Industrial Park, under the COMESA framework, represents a significant step toward achieving regional integration and industrialization goals for both nations.
