Mbeki has widely criticised for his softly-softly approach towards his Zimbabwean counterpart. The opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) has called for him to be axed as mediator.

Tsvangirai has yet to announce whether he will compete in a run-off, after claiming outright victory in the first round.
