HARARE, Oct 15 (Reuters) - Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe said on Wednesday talks aimed at rescuing a power-sharing pact had made progress and would be concluded on Thursday.

"We have made some progress, we will finish tomorrow," Mugabe told reporters after Wednesday's session of negotiations, mediated by former South African President Thabo Mbeki, ended without an agreement.
