| dbo:abstract | The 2016–2017 Zimbabwe protests began in Zimbabwe on 6 July 2016. Thousands of Zimbabweans protested government repression, poor public services, high unemployment, widespread corruption and delays in civil servants receiving their salaries. A national strike, named "stay-away day," began on 6 July and subsequent protests took place across the country and diaspora. The Zimbabwean government blamed Western governments for the protests and were accused of blocking social media such as WhatsApp from 9 am until 11 am on 6 July 2016 to prevent people from gathering to protest. On 18 November 2017, anti-Mugabe solidarity protests were held in Zimbabwe and other countries, following the military takeover of the country on 15 November. On 21 November, Robert Mugabe sent a letter to Zimbabwe's Parliament resigning the presidency. (en) Demonstrasi Zimbabwe 2016 dimulai di Zimbabwe pada 6 Juli 2016. Ribuan orang Zimbabwe memprotes penindasan yang dilakukan oleh pemerintah, layanan publik yang buruk, tingkat pengangguran yang tinggi, korupsi yang merajalela dan terlambatnya pembayaran gaji pegawai negeri. Demonstrasi nasional yang dijuluki "stay-away day" dimulai pada tanggal 6 Juli dan demonstrasi kemudian berlangsung di Zimbabwe dan di luar negeri. Pemerintah Zimbabwe menyalahkan pemerintah Barat dan diduga telah memblokir seperti WhatsApp dari pukul 9 hingga 11 pagi pada 6 Juli 2016 untuk mencegah pengumpulan para demonstran. (in) Os protestos de 2016–2017 no Zimbábue começaram em 6 de julho de 2016 quando milhares de zimbabuanos protestaram contra a repressão governamental, serviços públicos precários, alto desemprego, corrupção generalizada e atrasos no recebimento dos salários de funcionários públicos. Uma greve nacional, chamada de "dia de afastamento", começou em 6 de julho e protestos subsequentes ocorreram em todo o país e na diáspora. O governo do Zimbábue responsabilizou os governos ocidentais pelos protestos e foi acusado de bloquear mídias sociais como o WhatsApp das 9h às 11h de 6 de julho de 2016 para evitar que as pessoas se reunissem para protestar. Em 18 de novembro de 2017, protestos de solidariedade ao movimento anti-Mugabe foram realizados no Zimbábue e em outros países, após o golpe militar de 15 de novembro. Em 21 de novembro, Robert Mugabe enviou uma carta ao Parlamento do Zimbábue renunciando à presidência. (pt) |
