Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe and his South African counterpart, Jacob Zuma arrived for talks at the Union Buildings in Pretoria shortly after 10:00 on Wednesday.

Mugabe reportedly stood at attention next to Zuma, with their wives Grace and Thobeka behind them, as the national anthems for each country were played.

A number of bilateral agreements between the two countries would be signed. The first among them relates to the establishment of a bi-national commission and will be signed by International Relations and Co-operation Minister Maite Nkoana-Mashabane and Zimbabwe's Foreign Affairs Minister Simbarashe Mumbengegwi.

A memorandum of understanding between the two governments on diplomatic consultations will be signed by Nkoana-Mashabane and Mumbengegwi.

A mutual assistance agreement will also be signed between the countries' customs administrations.

These and more will be highlights of the meeting.

Details later.....
