IRIN News (UN): The unexpected happened and the expected did not. This is how an analyst described Burundian President Domitien Ndayizeye's first 100 days in power.

Ndayizeye, a Hutu, took over on 30 April from Pierre Buyoya, a Tutsi, as head of a transitional power-sharing government for the second half of its three-year team, which is to culminate in democratic elections and, hopefully, end 10 years of civil war. The war has displaced hundreds of thousands, of whom some 350,000 are refugees in Tanzania.

The change in the presidency is one of the terms of the Arusha Peace and Reconciliation Agreement, signed between Tutsi and Hutu political parties on 28 August 2000 at the end of two-and-a-half years of negotiations.

So far, Ndayizeye has fulfilled some of the key conditions of the Arusha agreement. A draft electoral law in preparation for the multiparty polls at the end of the transitional period is seen as one of the main achievements of his government.
