Mugabe sworn in for his sixth term
Robert Mugabe has been sworn in for a new five-year term as Zimbabwe's president after election officials declared a landslide victory for him.
It's up to the neighboring countries and the international community to decide whether to accept him as a true leader of Zimbabwe. The opinions are clear, but the outcome is not.
Official results show Mr Mugabe won all 10 provinces, with 85.5% of the vote, but there were many spoiled ballots.
He was the only candidate to run after the opposition boycotted the vote amid claims of state-sponsored violence.
