"new video loaded: What to Know About Madagascar's Government"
"After weeks of protests calling for him to resign, Madagascar's president, Andry Rajoelina, seemed to have left the country, and the military said it had taken control."
"John Eligon, the Johannesburg bureau chief for The New York Times, explains what we know and don't know."
Mass protests demanding President Andry Rajoelina's resignation persisted for several weeks. The president appeared to have left the country. The military announced that it had taken control of government functions. The exact circumstances of the president's departure remain unclear. The constitutional and legal status of the military's action is uncertain and raises questions about legitimacy and succession. Significant information gaps remain about who now exercises authority, the chain of command, and the next steps for restoring stable civilian governance. Regional and international responses may influence developments.
