Madagascan President Andry Rajoelina has refused to sign a transitional charter prepared by the international contact group and been against the return of his predecessor Marc Ravalomanana from exile.

"The High Transitional Authority doesn't want return of the former president to the country," Rajoelina told French Ambassador to Madagascar Jean Marc Chataigner and secretary general of the Indian Ocean Commission Callixte d'Offaye here on Wednesday evening before leaving for Dakar, Senegal.

Rajoelina told the media at the airport that his transitional authority wanted to fulfill its duty of development, like building hospitals, reducing poverty, restoring security.

However, He claimed that Ravalomanana, his supporters and others wanted to make trouble, making the transitional government unable to fulfill its duty.

On Wednesday, Representatives of former presidents Ravalomanana and Didier Ratsiraka boycotted negotiations sponsored by the international contact group.

The international contact group, consisted of international mediators from the African Union and the international organization of French-speaking countries, has been trying to convince Madagascan stakeholders to compromise on a draft agreement it prepared weeks ago.

International mediators suggested that the current transitional leader Rajoelina and four predecessors should not be candidates for next presidential election.

The big four failed to make any agreement on the proposal after a week of consultations and even went to the opposite, suggesting that all of them should run in the national election next year.

Ratsiraka's representatives asked for more time to study the charter before making any decision while Ravalomanana's camp insisted on the return of "their father" and release of their colleagues imprisoned by the transitional government.

Rajoelina and his colleagues in the transitional government rejected the idea of allowing the return of his political rival, saying that it was not acceptable.

Ravalomanana has been living in exile since March 25, four days after Rajoelina replaced him as president of the island country.
