The response of the community of African states is not uniform; for example, South Africa, which is certainly affected by what is going on, is putting its trust in quiet diplomacy, which it wants to use as a means of avoiding a breach between it and a state that is a neighbour, and a very important one at that.
Par exemple, l’Afrique du Sud, qui est certainement affectée par ce qu’il se passe au Zimbabwe, place sa confiance dans la diplomatie discrète, qu’elle souhaite utiliser pour éviter une rupture avec un pays voisin si important.
