Chris Coons actually said...

There is, indeed, a significantly more open society and economy than there was under Mugabe, but it is significantly short of what a free, fair, and open society looks like where rule of law dominates, where elections happen regularly, the opposition is free to speak, where a press is truly unhindered.

Context

Coons discusses the progress in Zimbabwe since Mugabe but highlights ongoing issues.
