Jean Ping, chairman of the African Union Commission, Wednesday urged African countries and their partners to “refrain from any actions likely to reinforce the illegality of power in Madagascar”. However, France has maintained its development assistance. “Like other partners in Madagascar, including the European Union, France did not interrupt its cooperation programs already underway, in particular humanitarian and food aid, in order not to further penalize the people of Madagascar”, said the deputy spokesman of the french Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Frederic Desagneaux, Thursday, in Paris.
