MDC leader Morgan Tsvangirai said talks with Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe aimed at rescuing a power-sharing deal ended without agreement on Tuesday, but will resume on Wednesday.

The deal, brokered last month by former South African President Thabo Mbeki, is in danger of collapse over disagreements about cabinet posts.

Tsvangirai threatened to pull out of the coalition at the weekend after Mugabe allocated key ministries to his ZANU-PF party.

Analysts say that although the talks look doomed, the rivals are under pressure to reach a settlement.
