JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — Zimbabwe’s main opposition leader will return home this weekend after more than two months out of the country and planned to meet with Robert Mugabe in an effort to resolve the stalemate over a power-sharing agreement.

Morgan Tsvangirai told reporters in South Africa on Thursday that he was under no illusions a simple conversation would be enough to persuade Mugabe to cede some of the power he has held for nearly three decades.

Tsvangirai said he would bring his own conditions to the meeting, among them a call for the release of supporters and peace activists being tried on what Tsvangirai called “trumped up” charges of plotting to overthrow Mugabe.
