In a significant political development in the Central African Republic (CAR), President Faustin-Archange Touadéra has secured a third term in office. Provisional results from the election held on December 28, 2025, indicate that Touadéra received approximately 76.15% of the vote. This election followed a controversial referendum that removed presidential term limits, enabling the incumbent to run again.
The main opposition coalition chose to boycott the vote in protest against the constitutional changes. This boycott has raised concerns regarding the fairness and inclusivity of the election process. Despite the opposition’s absence, the elections were closely monitored by both local and international observers.
