ZDERA Sanctions?
According to the attached inflation and money supply graph, in 2001, #ZDERA was imposed on Zimbabwe by the U.S. Congress, and the inflation rate rose from 80% to 350% between December 2001 and November 2003 when executive order sanctions were imposed on 80 investors, companies, politicians, and individuals.
Executive Order Sanctions?
From 2003-2006, after imposition of the first executive order sanctions #EO13288 by the U.S. President, inflation rose marginally for a short time to the beginning of 2005 and then went down from 350% to 120%.
Then, from November 2005, another 80 parastatals, companies, government officials, and investors were added to executive orders sanctions #EO13391, and inflation rose to over 9000% in three years.
Money Printing?
From 2001 to 2007, the RBZ (Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe) increased money supply by only 100% or 13% compounded per annum (less than U.S. quantitative easing over the same period) while inflation was over an average of 1000% per year.
The mass printing of money only began in earnest after the U.S. President added the government of Zimbabwe, all municipalities, all parastatals, government companies like IDC, ZISCO steel, Willowvale; government banks like RBZ, ZB Bank, InterMarket, Scotfin, etc; private companies doing business with the government; and 144 other listed major investors like Bredenkamp, Rautenbach, Van Hoogstraten and such, associated companies and politicians to the executive order sanctions #EO13469 in July 2008.
Observations.
So, looking at the inflation and money supply graph, it would seem that Zimbabwe’s inflation started way before the RBZ began printing money [in July, 2008], and it turned into stagflation and the worst inflation in the world before government printing presses began to print money to buy US dollars off the black market to keep the nation’s critical function (buying fuel, medicines, fertilizers, seeds, reagents and vehicles) going.
We have seen that even though ZDERA existed between 2001 and 2005, inflation actually fell by over 50% under ZDERA and the first executive order sanctions, until the second set of executive order sanctions EO13391 came in October 2005 and devastated the economy.
The country’s inflation would surpass 9000% in January, 2008, to over 1 billion percent between July 2008 and February 2009 when the Government of National Unity was signed. This followed the introduction of the executive orders EO13469 upon government, its companies, banks, institutions, and private businesses that do business with the government, basically these became blanket sanctions upon the whole nation.
So now that these notorious executive order sanctions that broke the Zimbabwean economy have been removed by the American President, in an environment where the U.S. is shifting its policy on Zimbabwe from aggression to mending bridges, should inflations be rising under ZDERA and individual Magnitsky sanctions upon 11 individuals?
According to history between 2001 and 2005 when we were under ZDERA and executive sanctions on 80 entities and individuals, the numbers say no. Moreover, as a nation we have developed measures to mitigate sanctions better than before, but it is the use of the world’s reserve currency as our local currency, externalization of that currency, the lack of savings in our banks, money trading, smuggling of precious resources and taking advantage of the arbitrage created by the illegal sanctions, that has becoming a scourge upon our currency. We need a mind change in Zimbabwe to build our nation.

#HilaryClinton & side kick #JoeBiden, both #Democrats, in initiating ruinous sanctions against #Zimbabwe (#ZDERA) in their quest to make #Zimbabwe #Haiti. Remember Hilary & #GeorgeSoros ruined Haiti.
#Zimbabwe
Sir @KMutisi maybe you need to hold a Space to dissect the outlined requirements to be met as stated in #ZDERA for #Zim then to be considered for credit lines following the clearance of the debt as states by @USEmbZim🙏🏿 @matinyarare
@ZANUPF_Official
The Americans are eager to say they have removed Sanctions on Zimbabwe… they emphasise that they NEVER invoked ZDERA & it’s not a Sanction…
Now, WHO IS THE MESSAGE DIRECTED TO??
This is key!
For the Americans, they are giving signals to their companies and citizens that they have changed policy direction on Zimbabwe.. that they have removed all the problematic policies… This messaging is important for changing perceptions.
The ball is now the Zimbabwean side… it seems there is still confusion on how to communicate the recent developments…
The outrage over the sanctions on the President & VP may cloud sound decision making… Wisdom needed

What does the removal of #ExecutiveOrderSanctions on Zimbabwe mean? And how do the remaining #ZDERA and new #MagnitskyAct sanctions affect Zimbabwe going forward?
.@SenateForeign Ranking Member Risch releases a statement on today’s announcement by the Biden Admin of shifting #Zimbabwe-related sanx to #GlobalMagnitsky. Importantly, #ZDERA remains fully intact & the changes only referring to sanctions tools, not a shift in bilateral policy.
Today’s designation of 14 individuals & entities is a major shift in approach to #Zimbabwe-related sanctions, but not U.S. policy toward the regime. The Biden Admin must implement ZDERA as intended & support the democratic aspirations of the Zim people. https://t.co/Zo5jQLsaVE

2. #IEEPA and #EO13469 sanctions prohibit anyone from giving payment clearances, technology, software, machines and material assistance to the 𝗴𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗭𝗶𝗺𝗯𝗮𝗯𝘄𝗲, municipalities, parastatals, any companies owned by the government of Zimbabwe, 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 and 144 investors, companies, financial institutions, farms, factories and anyone who does business with them.

3. #EuropeanCouncilCommonPosition 2002/145/CFSP blocked $132 million of aid that was aimed at building hospitals, roads and education for Zimbabweans, not targets.
Those are not targeted sanctions. Those are sanctions on the government that gives services to all Zimbabweans and thus collective sanctions upon all Zimbabweans. Mr 30% metric pass.
@matinyarare Sanctions in Zimbabwe are against individuals that are abusing their citizens.

#Zimbabwe
Pastor @nelsonchamisa under his #CCCStrategicAmbiguity he deliberately did not give away his ideology or policies until closer to #ZimElection2023 #Zim23Aug23
His mission is to answer to the request stated under @POTUS @SecBlinken @USEmbZim #ZDERA to give back our land to the colonists‼️
#ZimWillNeverBeAColonyAgain‼️
#ZimVoteWisely🗳️ #VoteZanuPF❎
#nzira #chimurenga✊🏿
Finally, CCC's mouthpiece @NewsDayZimbabwe survey confirms a 71% victory for ZANU PF‼️
Kasukuwere is last with 1%.
The US policy statement in ZDERA says: they imposed [illegal] #ZDERA sanctions, to assist Zimbabweans to achieve democratic change.
So what would happen if Zimbabweans wanted democratic maintenance of their government? The US sanctions would punish those people with sanctions, until they vote for democratic change. That sounds like coercion/force and not democracy.
And who were the US going to force people to democratically change to? The #MovementForDemocraticChange whose leaders later formed CCC.

I was pro @matinyarare’s anti sanctions campaign but I cannot stand ongoing disinformation efforts to build a compelling narrative that CCC are Western Puppets and that life in ZW is so good there’s no reason for dissenting voices. I’m getting Bell Pottinger vibes.
4/4 And #Zdera sanctions are not on RBZ or Zim imports/exports or trade in gold; imposed to reverse land reform, they hike Zim's sovereign risk & cost of doing biz, scuttle debt relief & access to concessionary finance to the detriment of the economy, Zim lives and livelihoods!
