Briefing on U.S. Strategy Toward Sub-Saharan Africa with Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs Johnnie Carson

AMBASSADOR CARSON: Thank you very much. We are deeply troubled by the continuing political impasse that exists within Madagascar. Nearly three years ago, the former government headed by President Ravalomanana was overthrown in a military intervention that led to the emergence of the current President, Mr. Rajoelina, as the head of state.

We believe fundamentally that a new political dispensation should be put in place, that the people of Madagascar should be allowed to vote on new elected leaders, and that all of those individuals who are interested in contesting for the presidency should be allowed to freely contest for those elections. And we also firmly believe that those who are in power and who make the rules and who seek to manage those elections should not, in fact, participate in them. Those who were the beneficiaries of military interventions and coup d’etats should not, in fact, be setting the rules and defining the regulations for the successor of government.

We think that the work that is being done by SADC, by the AU and by South Africa and other international partners is absolutely critical and important. We believe that the work that is being done by South Africa and SADC as well as some of the Europeans is the way to go. A solution needs to be found in order for Madagascar to come out from under the negative political cloud under which it has been operating for nearly three years. (...)

AMBASSADOR CARSON: As I’ve said before, we support the initiatives that are undertaken by SADC and the AU and South Africa to find a political solution that will allow all of the key political players to have a role in participating in an election that is well-managed and freely organized. It’s important that we in the United States continue to observe the process. We believe that Madagascar deserves a better political future than it has had over the last several years."

Vaky bantsilana tamin’ny alalan’ity fampitam-baovao miafina ity ny tanjon’ny mpanjanaka momba ny Filoha RAVALOMANANA. Raha ny voarakitra ao anatiny dia lafrantsa mihitsy no « mikarakaraka » ny raharaham-pitsarana momba ny 07 febroary mandeha atsy Afrika Atsimo amin’izao fotoana ary tsy ho ara-drariny velively izany. Misy ireo « mpiara-miasa » aminy amin’izany ary tetik’ady iombonan’izy ireo no nahatongavana amin’ny fanapahan-kevitry ny fitsarana ao Pretoria momba ny tsy fahafahan’ny Filoha mivezivezy sy ny fisintomana ny « passport »-ny. Efa miketrika ny hamorona porofo izy ireo mba hitazoman’ny fitsarana afrikana tatsimo ny Filoha RAVALOMANANA.

Fandriam-pahalemana
Araka ny ahiahy efa nozaraina teto dia voaporofo fa asan’ny mpanjanaka ihany koa io resaka dahalo any atsimo io. Voalaza ato antin’ity fampitam-baovao miafina ity fa fandemena ny sain’ny mpitandro filaminana Malagasy tsy ho sahy miatrika ady no tanjona amin’izany. Efa notolorana hevitra rahateo Rajoelina, araka ny taratasy voaray, mba hiantso mpikarama an’ady frantsay amin’ny anaran’ny fitondrana Malagasy « hampandry tany » any atsimo. Voalaza hatrany fa tsy mbola nananosarotra tamin’ireo miaramila frantsay miasa eto Madagasikara mihitsy ny nandresy lahatra ny etamazaoro hanaraka an-jambany izay torohevitra nomen’izy ireo.

Herin’ny vahoaka
Fanamarihana eo amin’ny faran’ny fampitam-baovao ny momba ny fahosan’ny fitondrana amin’izao fotoana. Voalaza manko fa tsy nahomby ny fanakorontanan ny mpanohitra izay nataon’ny iraky ny mpanjanaka hany ka tsy mbola tsara toerana ny FATE hatreto. Tsy azon’ny frantsay antoka koa anefa ny mety ho fihetsiky ny ankamaroan’ny mpitandro filaminana rahatoa ka misy fihetseham-bahoaka goavana tampoka avy aty amin’ny mpanohitra. Mpanohitra izay mbola mankato ny Filoha RAVALOMANANA ny ankamaroany. Io fanamarihana io dia tokony fanoitra ho an’ny Malagasy handray an-tanana ny hoaviny sy ny taranany satria ny hetsi-bahoaka aloha izany hatreto no sehatra tsy voafehin’ny mpanjanaka momba ny « neutralisation » ataony amin’ny Filoha RAVALOMANANA .

Les derniers évènements tragiques que vivent les populations du Grand Sud, la déliquescence vertigineuse de l'appareil d'Etat, la paupérisation accélérée de toutes les couches sociales et les récentes agitations de politiciens en mal d'existence exigent qu'enn Madagascar et les Malgaches
s'engagent sur les chemins de crêtes et ne se perdent ni dans les méandres ni dans les chimères qui enlisent et polluent le débat politique.

Le PSD entend sortir les Malgaches des petites querelles et des vaines incantations en leur proposant la mobilisation des énergies, la formulation des synergies et la rencontre des convergences. ...

... Atao daholo ny fomba rehetra anilihana an-dRasendrahasina sy ny mpomba azy, ka teraka ny angaredona any Manakara ankehitriny : Ao ny resa-piaviana ka profesora iray manana anarana malaza no mitarika izany ; ao ireo efa mpiara-miasa ao amin’ny Filoha ankehitriny, ao amin’ny Foibe, anisan’ireny ny SG izay efa voatonontonona matetika ihany sy Pastora lehibena departemanta iray ao amin’ny FJKM ao. Ankoatra izany dia misy ireo pastora vitsivitsy eto an-drenivohitra izay mifandray tendro amin’ireo rehetra ireo. Anisan’izany ny pastoran’ny Katedraly FJKM, ka ny iray ilay ao am-povoan-tanàn’Antananarivo ary ny iray ilay ery am-pita atsimon’Ikopa, izay toa mody hendry ary mody mangina, kanefa ny kibay an-kelika ihany.

Fa ny tena ifandrotehana, an-koatra ny toeran’ny Prezidà, ao amin’ity Fiangonana FJKM ity, dia ny toeran’ny Filoha Lefitra izay notanan’ny Filoha Ravalomanana hatramin’izay. Iza avy ireo mikendrikendry io toerana io, hifaninana aminy ? Telo izy ireo ary samy manao izay ho afany koa : Ilay lehibena Sampana sady efa biraon’ny FJKM ankehitriny ; ny faharoa dia lehibena andrim-panjakana teo aloha sady efa masoivoho tany ivelany ; ny fahatelo dia efa minisitra teo aloha koa ary tonga mpitantana Ivon-toerampiofanana politika ankehitriny.
Ny iombonan’izy irehetra ireo dia ny hanilika an-dRasendrahasina sy Ravalomanana ary izay mitovy hevitra aminy. Koa inona moa izany fa tsy angaredona tsotra izao ! Farany, lasa ny eritreritra fa raha SANATRIA resin’ny fitiavam-bola sy voninahitra ny mpanao synoda dia ho lasan’ny FAT ambongadiny ny FJKM.
