From his own party. In a live address to the nation widely expected to include his resignation saw him pledge instead to oversee his Party Congress next month. But the party has already replaced him and given him until midday on monday to resign orface impeachment. Heres our africa editor, fergal keane. The very music seemed designed to drain any drama out of the moment. And perhaps the geniality of the encounter was a giveaway. Robert mugabe did not look like a man about to walk into the wilderness and his words delivered 15 minutes into a rambling address confirmed that he intended to stay as leader of the country and party at least until the Party Congress in december. The congress is due in a few weeks from now. I will preside over its processes which must not be repossessed by any axe calculated to undermine it or to compromise the outcome in the eyes of the public. He praised the military and acknowledge the crisis in his country and party. The way forward thus cannot be based on swapping lying clicks that ride roughshod over party rules and procedures. There has to be a net return to the Guiding Principles of our party as enshrined in its constitution. This appearance has shocked the people of zimbabwe who were prepared to witness his resignation. I think we are being played. I feel let down, by now we should have had a result, but it is like we are back to square one. What did you make of that . I think the whole nation was expecting him to resign and we are all shocked, i think people will be depressed, confused, people do not understand what is happening, but i think we are in a post mugabe era. It will happen. There are Big Questions now, how can Robert Mugabe preside over a party which today removed him from the leadership . Once loyal supporters met to warn that he would be impeached by parliament if he did not step down from the presidency by midday tomorrow. An old friend read out the sentence. Tonights non resignation does not change the feeling of the party and it does not remove the bitterness against his wife grace mugabe and her friends. It has to be over now . Oh, yes. It is over. What he did is enough. Enough is enough. The people of zimbabwe have shown in numbers that they are fed up with this dynasty and a new era is beginning. Look at my back. This is the moment when Robert Mugabe lost power in his own party, the party he dominated for so long and has now been replaced as party leader by a man who was one of his closest allies for decades. The new leader Emmerson Mnangagwa is known as the crocodile, celebrated here for his ruthless cunning. When he gets his prey. He may have agreed to pause, but he is unlikely to stop until he ousts his old comrades. On the streets of harare, the people of the president seem to occupy a different nation. Here praying for reconciliation and healing. They have already started to move beyond the trauma of the age of mugabe. Our africa editor, fergal keane reporting there. Horace campbell is a visiting professor at the university of ghana. He joins me from accra. So this was an extraordinary speech. What was your reaction to it . So this was an extraordinary speech. What was your reaction to mm so this was an extraordinary speech. What was your reaction to it . It is not a speech about zimbabwe. It was a speech about the party. And the party was part of the problem. So the questions of the future constitution of the government of zimbabwe will not be decided by the party. So the focus should not the other party. The focus should be on an inclusive government, and Robert Mugabe will be irrelevant. To that includes a government, the people of zimbabwe, in the tens of thousands showed that yesterday, when they came out on the streets. But he did not resign. How surprised were you by that . I am not surprised by that because Robert Mugabe has enough information on the general, on the head of the war veterans that is playing for time. The question is can they call his bluff . Can they cut off his telephone discussions with zuma . Can cut off his telephone discussions with zuma . Can then make sure that he cannot move any money around that he cannot move any money around that he might have in banks overseas. So the articles of impeachment in the parliament can be prepared for tuesday, so the question of his being the head of government and head of state is resolved by the parliament of zimbabwe. Do you think the protesters that we have seen out on the street will stand for it if he does not go, and go quickly . They will not stand for it. The protests on the streets represent the culmination of io 15 years of struggle by the people of zimbabwe. And what is important about the speech night, that came from Robert Mugabes speaking about the Political Party zanu pf did not speak about the people of the streets. There must be a transitional period and an inclusive government, and the institutions in zimbabwe must be changed so that the authoritarian tendencies in the Political Party are taken out of the governments structure of zimbabwe. Horace campbell, thank you very much for joining horace campbell, thank you very much forjoining us. Thank you. Talks to form a Coalition Government in germany have collapsed. Christian lindner, the leader of the liberal free democrats, said his party was pulling out because it had not been possible to find a basis of trust with chancellor Angela Merkels christian democrats. Mrs merkel said she would now meet the german president who has the power to call a new election. Andrew plant reports. After three terms in office, Angela Merkels hopes of staying in power rest on forming a coalition. An election in september left Angela Merkel without a majority, with some voters angered by germanys liberal policy towards refugees. Translation the fact is that we could not finish the exploratory talks successfully. That means i will contact the federal president tomorrow, inform them about the state of affairs, and then we will have to see how things develop. To form a stable government, she needed to Reach Agreement with the free democrats and the greens. It was banned from left to right on germanys political spectrum. But finding Common Ground has proved impossible. The leader of the free democrats has said that the parties had no common vision for the country. Translation we will not abandon our voters for a policy with which we are not convinced. It is better not to govern them to govern badly. There are ways for it. Negotiations could continue if Angela Merkel can persuade the free democrats back to the table. Without them, she could only form a minority coalition, which commentators say is unlikely. At least the possibility of calling another general election. What is certain is that the failure to form a coalition means that Angela Merkels position is suddenly more uncertain after 12 years at the top of european politics. Andrew plant, bbc news. Five countries are involved in a huge air and sea search for a missing argentine submarine. Contact was lost five days ago, as the sanjuan returned from a routine mission off the south american coast with 44 crew on board. Signals have been detected which may provide clues to its location. Dan johnson reports. This is a vessel designed to play hide and seek in the deepest depths. So finding the sanjuan, its crew, and the 22 torpedoes it carries is a real challenge. Fresh satellite signals, albeit weak ones, have revived hopes of rescue. Seven call attempts have been received, says the navys spokesman, but they were incomplete, and need to be checked to pinpoint the location. He stressed they are making every effort to find the submarine, searching the open ocean and the sea bed. This is now an International Effort. The us navy has flown in deep sea rescue equipment. And hms protector, the royal navys Antarctic Patrol ship, has been diverted to help scan beneath the waves of the south atlantic ocean. The sanjuan left the southern port of ushuaia last monday, after a routine mission. It was making the 2,000 mile journey back to its base in mar del plata, not far from argentinas capital. The search is focused around halfway, in the sanjorge gulf, where the submarine last made contact on wednesday. One of the 44 crew members is argentinas first female submariner. The best hope of finding her and her crewmates alive is that a power failure knocked out the submarines communications. Six countries are now hunting for the san juan, but it is lost in a huge area of ocean, and bad weather is making a difficultjob even harder. Dan johnson, bbc news. Joining me is our latin american editor, candace piette. So, how significant are the signals that have been heard . Well, they we re that have been heard . Well, they were initially considered to be very significant. They were very weak. They went to all these naval bases along the coast of argentina. Provide a great hope, particularly for relatives of the crew. But in the last 2a hours, the Argentine Navy has said that the company that has been looking at the signals and try to work out exactly where they we re try to work out exactly where they were coming from says they did not come from their recruitment aboard the ara san juan. Come from their recruitment aboard the ara sanjuan. But they did not this meant that fact that they did not dismiss that this would be coming from other satellite equipment. So that is one part of the puzzle sorted. We are now in a situation where they still are looking for this boat, possibly the satellite signals coming from an emergency ara san juan satellite signals coming from an emergency ara sanjuan that these are might have at some point. Potentially huge search area. How crucial is the International Search effort . They are looking across a section of sea of around 400 kilometres squared, just off the vald es kilometres squared, just off the Valdes Peninsula in the south atlantic. Valdez. The International Effort has been hugely important. The navy has been saying that they welcome all the help that particularly the us with its high tech aeroplanes and detecting equipment, and it big sea rescue modules that it has just brought in in the last 34 hours. The uk also has some sophisticated mitigations bows and a hercules plane. There are four countries that are involved. They are sweeping the sea. They have been doing that, and the trouble has been doing that, and the trouble has been very difficult weather, and make it very hard for the sonar equipment on board these boats to actually detect anything there. They are getting false messages coming back, bouncing off these high, seven metre waves. Thank you for the update. Stay with us on bbc news.

Lets stay with that story. Thousands of people took to the streets of harare at the weekend in support of the armys actions against president mugabe. Shingai nyoka has been speaking to residents in the capital to get their reaction to mr mugabes refusal to resign. We must learn to forgive. They came to listen to what president mugabe had to say. After a meeting with Army Generals responsible for a takeover earlier last week, they had expected to hear his resignation speech. At this bar, they waited and waited to be told by president mugabe in a stumbling address. All this now has done. That he was going nowhere. He does not speak for our interests. He only speaks for his personal interests, and his family. So, why are you so disappointed . We are suffering we are suffering. We have had enough of suffering. We need him we need him to change his mind. We need him to resign. He didnt actually say hes resigning or anything, so were still waiting. The people marched yesterday. They expressed their views. Im a young lawyer in zimbabwe. Ive been practicing law for the past three years. Its pathetic. The country has gone to the dogs. The consummate politician appears, at least for the moment, and on the surface, to have negotiated a deal on his own terms. This is not the announcement that some zimbabweans were waiting for. Robert mugabe is still the president and its not clear whether parliament will now begin impeachment process. People here today were expecting to hear the resignation they have demanded, but those hopes have been dashed. The wild celebrations we have seen on the streets stand in stark contrast to the sombre mood in harare tonight.

More than 80 of portugal is officially classified as enduring severe or extreme drought. Now there are concerns for the countrys population of bees which are crucial to pollinating crops.
