A United States Senator Jim Inhofe has reintroduced the Zimbabwe Sanctions Repeal Act of 2011 in a bid to cause the repeal of economic sanctions imposed on the southern African country in 2001 under the Zimbabwe Democracy and Economic Recovery Act (Zidera).
Inhofe first introduced this legislation last year. According to a Press release from Inhofe's office, the US was acknowledging for the first time that Zidera imposed sanctions on the country and not just targeted individuals as it has argued all along.
