UN rights chief Navi Pillay on Friday urged Western countries to suspend sanctions on Zimbabwe and its President Robert Mugage to give the country a chance to implement reforms.
"I would urge those countries that are currently applying sanctions on Zimbabwe to suspend them, at least until the conduct of the elections and related reforms are clear," she said in Harare after a five-day visit.
