Three mobilities: A reprieve for the HAT

The political mobilities opposed to Andry Rajoelina are arranging to meet with their partisans on the place of the Reconciliation in Anosy, on Wednesday January 27th. The anti-HAT movement’s leaders decided to refrain from organizing demonstrations on Monday and Tuesday following Jean Ping’s mission as President of the African Union’s Commission, in Antananarivo.
The deadlock is far from being settled, in spite of the international contact group’s new proposition. The three mobilities’ ousted parliamentarians supposed to integrate the late Transition’s Convention pledged by the Maputo agreements, are in for a couple of days long round up. The three mobilities – Didier Ratsiraka, Albert Zafy and Marc Ravalomanana – keep on militating for the implementation of the agreements signed with and by Andry Rajoelina, president of the High Authority of Transition, indeed but the young putsch maker does no more want to hold his word.
The Rajoelina mobility has openly stated its definitive rejection of the Maputo and Addis-Ababa deals, but Jean Ping considers this contestation like a simple “early hot reaction”. The president of the African Commission has rather granting fifteen days to political mobilities in order to assess his proposition based on elections, as well as on the reinstatement of institutions pledged by the Maputo and Addis-Ababa agreements, as a solution to the crisis.
The three mobilities are clearly not intending to leave an Andry Rajoelina dying for an undisputed rule, reach the end of the transitional period on his own. The three political mobilities are nevertheless still clashing with Rajoelina’s definitive refusal to play in compliance with the rules. Security forces loyal to Andry Rajoelina have been forbidding the joint front’s demonstrations for several days.
