Madagascar President Michael Randrianirina pledged “full cooperation” with Russia following a trip to Moscow late last week. The visit was a departure from Madagascar’s diplomatic tradition, in which former colonial power France is typically the president’s first official visit. Randrianirina, who took power in a coup last year, will travel to France tomorrow. While Russia was Madagascar’s 46th-ranked trading partner in 2024, that bilateral partnership has grown through Russia’s training the country’s military and providing weapons.

The ex colonies still have a bone to pick with france. Honestly i get it, they neeed a supporter and the french are still treating them as their colonies, its unsurprising that they let Russia and China be their new overlords, they dont have a history with them
