| Summary: | In the run-up of the forthcoming presidential election scheduled for the end of 2018 the political situation in the Republic of Madagascar is worsening. The incumbent president Hery Rajaonarimampianina is being accused of possessing levers of influence on judiciary.

The current financial situation, as a whole, meets expectations, and the positive results of a budget execution are obvious. |
