Abstract

The article focuses on the support declared by the Army Personnel Administration Center (CAPSAT) for anti-government demonstrators in Madagascar, highlighting concerns over instability and deteriorating living conditions. CAPSAT, which played a significant role in the 2009 coup that brought President Andry Rajoelina to power, urged security forces to prioritize the needs of the people rather than follow unlawful orders. The ongoing protests, sparked by shortages of water and power, have resulted in at least 22 deaths amid escalating violence. The unrest reflects broader frustrations with governance, access to essential services, and corruption in Madagascar, a nation with a history of political upheaval since its independence in 1960.
