Despite insecurity and the resumption of fighting in a country two-thirds controlled by armed groups, presidential and legislative elections were held this Sunday in the Central African Republic.

Under the high protection of Minusca and hundreds of Russian "military instructors".

How did you experience this voting day?

Can the outgoing head of state, Faustin Archange Touadéra, win in a “knockout” shot?

What will be the legitimacy of the president and the 140 elected deputies?

How far could former President François Bozizé go to regain power?

We open the debate.
