Zimbabwe's opposition leader Morgan Tsvagirai has said he is pleased with the state of compromise talks to form a unity government.
The negotiations with representatives of President Robert Mugabe's party are set to continue this weekend after coming to a standstill earlier this week. The hold-up means an outcome is unlikely to be reached by next Monday, however Tsvingarai indicated that this deadline could be flexible. A key sticking point has been agreeing on who should have most power, with both sides' leaders claiming democratic legitimacy from this year's flawed elections. The power sharing talks are being mediated by South African President Thabo Mbeki.
