Madagascar"s High Constitutional Court has declared the presidency vacant following a military takeover, citing President Andry Rajoelina"s abandonment of duties. In response, Colonel Michael Randrianirina, the leader of the elite CAPSAT unit, has been appointed as the interim head of state.
According to constitutional provisions, Colonel Randrianirina is required to organize elections within 60 days. This decision marks a significant shift in the political landscape of Madagascar.
The situation in Madagascar follows a pattern seen in other regions, such as recent developments in Azerbaijan, where political instability has led to arrests on serious charges.
As the country navigates this transition, further developments are expected in the coming weeks.
