governors want new climate policy -- Czech deputy PM ... The United Nations has called on African leaders meeting in the Egyptian resort of Sharm-el-Sheikh to seek a negotiated settlement to resolve the current crisis in Zimbabwe. UN Deputy Secretary-General Asha-Rose Migiro described the African Union conference as a moment of truth. South Africa has urged President Robert Mugabe, who is attending the talks, to open a dialogue with the opposition Movement for Democratic Change. Monitors from two different African groups have denounced Friday's election, in which Mugabe won a sixth term in office, saying they were neither free nor fair and didn't represent the will of the Zimbabwean people. Mugabe ran unopposed after MDC leader Morgan Tsvangirai pulled out the polls due to widespread violence against his supporters.
