military takeover pushing out 93-year-old president robert mugabe was planned a long time ago. good morning to you, david. >>reporter: good morning, dave. yes, it really is a critical moment here in zimbabwe, everyone holding their breath. we were out on the streets to see the heavy military presence, they are clearly still in control, dave, but we're learning from opposition leaders that this situation, when they took control of the country, has been planned for some time. the plan by the sacked vice president who was presumably trying to figure out a way to take power but we're just learning that president mugabe, who is still president on paper at least is attending a graduation ceremony here in hir rarry. a strange wrinkle to this. many would say because the military is on the streets but the president is staying put. you had the moment of these images released from statehouse of robert mugabe shaking the hands of the military who effectively have tried to depose him, all smiles there, real propaganda moment there released from state media but it does appear negotiations or ongo

of president robert mugabe. >> he's been there for years now despite the pressure to step down. david mckenzie is there in harare. david, this is a significant moment, potentially not just for mugabe or other zaimbabweans bu others across the country. >> reporter: that's right, it's a massive day in zimbabwe. we would not have been allowed to sit on the streets and do a live shot here because security would have come and grabbed them but today, thousands on the streets, tens of thousands, perhaps, calling for 93-year-old robert mugabe, the candidate that most people have known to step down. he's holed up, and we learned from a source, negotiating to get him out of power. we've had people shaking hands. taking selfies, giving fist bumps to soldiers on heavily armed carriers. and people for the ministry and you're hearing everyone here with a unified voice. calling for robert mugabe to step down. he has ruled this country for decades with an iron fist at times. but the military is saying he must move out. one source telling us if he doesn't go quietly, we'll have to do it the hard way.

. thousands of protests filling the streets of the zim bab wayian capital. so far mugabe refusing to step aside. cnn international correspondent david mckenzie is in harare. what is the ac moutmosphere? >> it was quite extraordinary just a few days ago. if you had stood outside some of those buildings and even taken a self yir, you would have been arrested, now thousands were n congregat congregating throughout the capital. the de facto leaders of the country, people with a unified force calling for the 93 kwheerl -year-old leader to step down. and there really was a sense of growing momentum here in the southern african country. people were saying though there might be at times uncomfortable with the fact that the army is basically in charge, we want the old man to go. they say he's tired. he's sick. some of them told me, and he needs to leave. but we're learning from sources that the president is digging in. they almost had a deal but then he stepped back from that deal. i spoke to the nephew of the leader that most zimbabweans are the only one he has known. told me robert mugabe is wil

this conversation is the man robert mugabe fired a few days ago, emmerson mnangagwa. it's highly unlikely that the army took the move they did to arrest mr. robert mugabe or put him under house arrest without mr. mnangagwa's knowledge. there are various players still to speak, to sort this out, and remember, poppy, swzimbabwe is e to have an election in 2018, whether it will go ahead with mr. mugabe be or mr. mnangagwa will take over there's questions left to answer. it is calm, people are going about their ordinary business, foreign embassies asked their citizens including the united states to stay indoors and stay calm, but at the moment this city is very calm. the sun is setting on a fairly wet day. the springs have begun. the story is still to unravel, poppy. >> it is. you think of someone like mugabe who held power so tightly for so long, just stepping down, ahead of these elections, it's hard to wrap your head around that. i will ask you how other world leaders are responding to this, clearly watching it very closely? >> they are watching it very closely. of course there's

years. emmerson mnangagwa sworn in as interim president succeeding robert mugabe, a day after mugabe and his wife were granted immunity allowing them to remain in the country. you might recall seeing pictures on tuesday when mugabe resigned, there was dancing and cheering in the streets. they say he stayed in office too long and then became a dictator. man gag what was mugabe's right hand man and he's known as a cunning political operator. >>> it's black friday and retailers are ready for you to splurge. why some are depending on you to go out and shop. a world-class sr who's stared down the best in her sport. but for both of them, the most challenging opponent was... pe blood clots in my lung. it was really scary. a dvt in my leg. i had to learn all i could to help protect myself. my doctor and i choose xarelto® xarelto®... to help keep me protected. xarelto® is a latest-generation blood thinner... ...that's proven to treat and reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots from happening again. in clinical studies, almost 98% of patients on xarelto® did not experience another dvt or

turmoil in zimbabwe with the coup and the question about mugabe's future. we think we need to take a deep breath and really do the right thing. >> wouldn't it have been your thinking that the president would have already looked at conservation facts and that's why he lifted the ban but now in a tweet says he wants to look at conservation facts, you know, review all the data and reconsider? what do you think has changed? >> you would hope so. as i said, there's been some gains in zambia. i think at the end of the day, the instability in the zimbabwe government probably contributed to it. i think the public outrage was fantastic in many ways. sportsman are amazing conservationists but we have such a problem with poaching in these areas. to have this kind of ban being lifted right now when we're seeing such massive declines, i think the public outrage really led the president to give it a second thought. i couldn't be prouder of the partnership with the national wildlife federation with paul allen's vulcan productions to raise the profile and make sure we're saving every single elephant. >>

economics, zimbab zimbabwe, will zimbabwe, after mugabe, be different? >> i wish it could be. i would love to be optimistic. not all military coups go disastrously wrong. chile's paved the way for democracy. it's not looking good in zimbabwe. all we're seeing here is a change within the existing regime, a palace revolution, if you like. it's hard to believe it will produce a mass revolution tragically. >> i was in singapore last week and found that what people were saying about trump's asia trip was really more about xi jinping. the united states seemed to be retreating. china seemed to be expanding. you know many of these foreign ministers and dealt with them for years. what was your sense? >> the fact that the united states is stabilizing its relationship with china is a good thing. the stability of the world relies on that. but president trump has mistreated the way that he has treated north korea. you should allow your underlings to do the tough talking so they understand when the head of state says do this or else, it's really serious. as it is, the first line is the last. and the oth

the move, we believe of grace mugabe to succeed the 93-year-old president. that is looking increasely unlikely because the military z in charge now on the treats in m harare. they have been told to stay home. we're learning now that the former prime minister, leader of the opposition is in town, that leads to suggest that there's ongoing negotiations to form some kind of transition government here in szimbabwe ou. it seems in practice he holds very little power and it does seem like they're trying to figure our out a way for him to leave the country or exit the scene. given he's been in h charge for nearly four decades it might be he's not willing to go quietly. >> some people have only known him as their leader. thank you so much. >>> at least 13 people killed as flash floods delaware state parts of greece. the we spread destruction reported around athens. the mayor said some people were trapped in at the homes. a state of emergency declared in the west attica region. many roads are closed. as many as 86 people have vn rescued from the waters. >> the head of the top consumer watch do
