Tsvangirai when?

See my comment here. I'd like to see a source stating that Tsvangirai is legally serving as prime minister right now. Signing an agreement doesn't necessarily mean the agreement immediately comes into legal effect. Everyking (talk) 05:14, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dubious

New PM = head of government?

No.

"Mugabe remains head of state and government, while Tsvangirai's role will be to formulate and implement policy" SAPA and newzimbabwe.com -- Jeandré, 2009-02-13t17:41z, -- Jeandré, 2009-02-15t08:36z

Yes.

"[Tsvangirai] was sworn in as head of government Wednesday under a power-sharing agreement with the country's long-time president, Robert Mugabe who he was also scheduled to meet Thursday." - CNN -- Jeandré, 2009-02-15t08:36z

Maybe thats a functional head of government like Prime Minister of France?--Martianmister (talk) 11:31, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

He is constitutionally head of government and Mugabe is head of state, but whether this is how it works in practice is a whole other question... --92.237.153.26 (talk) 17:28, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment

I don't know if this is a relevant comparison but it's notable that the Prime Minister of Kenya is not the head of government - see that article for details. If Zimbabwe (or the international community putting pressure on it) copied the model adopted in Kenya only several months before then it may be similar. The Zimbabwean PM's website has a section listing the PM's responsibilities but doesn't have anything like "serve as head of government" in them.
