The 15-nation EU imposed a visa ban on Mugabe and 19 of his close associates in February 2002 after Zimbabwe expelled the head of an EU team of election observers.
Now France has invited him to meet in Paris. Maybe they could invite Saddam and have a tea party with old friends?

Mind you in Britain we gave Pinochet the red carpet treatment until that Spanish judge filed an international arrest warrant. Hopefully he'll do the same again with Mugabe, since the French authorities don't seem much bothered.
Even then we eventually sent him home...
We really aren't in any position to lecture anyone are we?
I think that the ECC got it right when they said that the Govt were saying one thing but doing another. Even if their actions were reprehensible too.
