Madagascar on Friday declared Hery Rajaonarimampianina, a former finance minister backed by strongman Andry Rajoelina, as the country's new president, after elections aimed at restoring democracy.
Rajaonarimampianina, 55, was "declared officially president of the Republic of Madagascar," with just over 53 percent of the votes, said the president of the electoral court, Francois Rakotozafy.
