TIME: You often sound more optimistic than your people, many of whom question sharing power with Mugabe. Tsvangirai: This arises out of a lack of change of paradigm, among all the people. It is sometimes very difficult to change mindsets. But our people were experiencing struggle fatigue because of the economic and social pressures they were facing. At some point we had to define a roadmap to resolve our national crisis: a transition, a new constitution. If we had not gone into government, what would have happened? Collapse? When we came into government in February, we found $4 million...
...judged to have blocked an American skater, there were protests here against American troops. That same year, anti-American sentiment broke out throughout the country after two Korean schoolgirls were accidentally run over by a tank during an American military training exercise. These outbursts of conflict reflect simmering anger among Koreans at the relative weakness of their military, compared to their highly productive economy. Since the end of the Korean War, the South Korean economy has developed enormously. The fact that their military ability remains inadequate is more than a little confusing and embarrassing to them...

Those were among the excellent questions hurled at the President, and he countered only with partial responses and vague rhetoric...
...Refusing to even discuss East Jerusalem's status raises the ante, providing further reason for skepticism among Arabs that Netanyahu is serious about a two-state solution. The Obama Administration has warned Israel not to proceed with a residential project in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood in East Jerusalem, noting that the U.S. views such construction in the same light as settlement expansion. But while the Netanyahu government may be willing to dismantle some of the settlement outposts built without permission in the West Bank (they're usually rebuilt by settlers within days), the Prime Minister made clear on Sunday that...
