Zimbabwe's government said on Wednesday it would boycott a summit between the European Union and African Union in Brussels next week, if President Robert Mugabe's wife was not granted a visa to travel with him.

Mugabe and his wife Grace are under an EU travel ban imposed in 2002, after a government crackdown on the opposition and the eviction of white farmers from agricultural land.

The EU had waived the visa ban on Mugabe, who is the vice-chairperson of the AU, saying it was not bound by the ban when hosting large international conferences.
