As a result of international and regional pressure, a government of national unity (GNU) was formed in 2009 comprising the ZANU-PF and the opposition Movement of Democratic Change (MDC). Far-reaching political and economic reforms, along with reforms to the election system and the media, were originally set out in a governmental agreement but there has been little progress in implementing the agreement as the government is split and the reforms have been consistently blocked by the ZANU-PF. However, recently there has been some progress.
