WELP, HERE WE GO AGAIN.

(Translated from French)

Faced with repeated violations of the Constitution, Col. Michael Randrianarina of CAPSAT announced from the State Palace in Ambohitsorohitra the suspension of the Constitution of 11 December 2010, and the establishment of transitional structures for national renewal.
The Senate, the High Constitutional Court, the Independent Electoral Commission, the High Court of Justice, and the High Council for the Defense of Democracy are suspended, while the National Assembly remains in operation.

Huh. The National Assembly intends to begin an extraordinary session tomorrow to attempt to remove the president from office.

Rajoelina’s speech has been delayed several times, first due to the presidential office’s claims that armed military groups were trying to take control of public media studios, then without any further explanation. It was supposed to happen over two hours and a half ago.

Meanwhile, French president Emmanuel Macron was asked by French media about the whole “French plane exfiltrates Malagasy president” thing. Instead of admitting anything, the bastard decided to emphasize the importance of avoiding any foreign meddling in Madagascar’s local affairs”.

The National Assembly just voted to impeach President Rajoelina, 130 to 0.

BUT

Rajoelina tried to stem the vote by dissolving the Assembly.

So now the question is which move is considered valid.

(→ cont.)
This initiative is presented as a response to the aspirations of the Malagasy people, aimed at restoring democracy, rebuilding trust in institutions, and establishing fair, transparent, and accountable governance.
This period, limited to a maximum of two years, will be led by a Joint Committee (‘Fiadidianana iombonana ho an'ny fanavaozana’) exercising presidential prerogatives, a government, the National Assembly in its current form, and the judicial system, including a High Court for Renewal.
A constitutional referendum and elections to establish new institutions will close this period.
