One observer said if elections will indeed be held in 2011, it means that SADC no longer has enough space and time to unlock the stalemate, especially when the parties are actively focused on the new constitution.

Another observer in the intelligence service said he doubted elections would be held in 2011, saying they were likely to be held in 2013 instead. Mugabe has indicated that he will stand in the next elections if elected by his party. (Agencies)
