President Robert Mugabe has been appointed a UN "leader for tourism", despite being subject to a travel ban.
Mr Mugabe, 88, along with Michael Sata, the Zambian president, were honoured by the UN's World Tourism Organisation, when they signed an agreement in the no-man's-land on Victoria Falls Bridge.
The agreement will see the two countries co-host the UNWTO general assembly in August next year. It is not a formal position, although the UNWTO said Mr Mugabe would receive an open letter like other heads of state who have joined its tourism campaign.
