Madagascar's president denounces 'coup' attempt over protests

Madagascar President Andry Rajoelina on Friday denounced an attempt to topple his government following days of deadly youth-led protests against the political elite and years of misrule.

"They have been exploited to provoke a coup. What I want to tell you is that some people want to destroy our country," Rajoelina said in a live video on his Facebook page, without naming who was behind the move.
