GWERU, Zimbabwe, Sept 7 (Reuters) - Zimbabwean opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai said on Sunday he would not change his possition in power-sharing negotiations if pressured by South African President Thabo Mbeki, who is mediating.

"President Mbeki is coming but don't worry about him. He is not the one who is going to sign the agreement. He is going to have to persuade me to shift my position. But don't worry. One thing I will not do is to sell you out," he told a rally marking the ninth anniversary of his party.
