Tsvangirai calls on African Union

He made his request at a press conference from his home after briefly leaving the Dutch Embassy in Harare where he has been staying following security threats. He called for support from the African Union and the United Nations following disputed elections and a wave of political violence in Zimbabwe leading to him withdrawing from a run off election against Robert Mugabe.
