June 23, 2008 -- After the publication of the original article (see
below), Movement for Democratic Change presidential candidate Morgan
Tsvangirai held a press conference at which he issued a statement to the
effect that the MDC is pulling out of the presidential run-off election
because conditions for a free and fair election do not exist, [due to
the] the massive violence against his party and civic society. The press
conference followed the disruption of his final rally in Harare by
ZANU-PF vigilantes on June 22. Tsvangirai stated that the MDC was to
carry out further consultations and would announce the details of the
way forward.

We welcome the position taken by the MDC, and initial reports indicate
that this position has been accepted by MDC and civic society activists
and supporters.
