Despite a travel ban which is supposed to keep all members of Zimbabwe’s government from entering Europe, two Zimbabwean ministers have once again proved the ban is a sham by obtaining visas to visit the European Union headquarters in Belgium. The two are traveling there via Germany, which also is supposedly covered by the travel ban.

The officials will be in town for an African, Caribbean and Pacific-European Union (ACP/EU) Joint Parliamentary Assembly.

Is there any major government official left in Zimbabwe who hasn’t traveled to Europe since the ban was enacted?
