Army colonel to be sworn in as Madagascar president
Madagascar is the latest of several former French colonies to have fallen under military control since 2020, after coups in Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, Gabon and Guinea. It is the third military transition in Madagascar since independence from France in 1960, following coups in 1972 and in 2009.
