"Mr President, the cause of the current political crisis in Madagascar was a military which forced the democratically elected President of Madagascar, Marc Ravalomanana, to resign and go into exile two years ago. The seizure of power by the military was strongly condemned by the international community, including the European Union, which immediately cut off development aid. In addition, Madagascar was suspended from the Southern African Development Community and the African Union, which contributed to further isolation of the island. The political crisis in Madagascar is just reaching a crucial point, in which there is the opportunity that the negotiations which are in progress between the political leaders will bring about an end to the crisis. This is an ideal opportunity to restore constitutional order and call new elections. The talks also have fundamental significance for the restoration of funds to the country, which had payments of over EUR 600 million in EU development aid suspended. I hope the sides which have been in conflict will now manage to introduce a road map which will provide for the establishment of an interim government until new and – I trust – fair elections are called."@en1
