喀麦隆总统保罗·比亚在离国超过两个月后于周四返回首都雅温得1。这位93岁的领导人此前于6月7日离开喀麦隆前往瑞士日内瓦1，原声称仅作短暂欧洲私人逗留，但此行成为其执政以来最长的离国记录，引发国际社会对其健康状况和国家权力空白的担忧1。
比亚自1982年起领导喀麦隆至今1。喀麦隆议会在4月份恢复了副总统职位1，但该国制度设计中总统对副总统的任免具有完全控制权1。去年比亚的连任引发广泛抗议，造成至少16人死亡1。
Cameroon's President Paul Biya arrived back in the capital Yaounde on Thursday after spending more than two months outside the country, rekindling concerns about the 93-year-old leader's health and potential power vacuum within the state.1 Biya flew from Geneva, Switzerland, concluding an absence that began on June 7, which he had characterized as a brief private visit to Europe but proved to be the longest time away during his tenure.1
The extended absence has highlighted governance questions in a nation where the presidency concentrates significant authority.1 Cameroon's approximately 30 million population is predominantly young, with over 70 percent under age 35.1 A 2008 constitutional amendment eliminated presidential term limits, allowing Biya to continue in office despite his advanced age.1 The country formally reestablished a vice presidential position in April, though the president retains complete control over such appointments.1 Biya's reelection last year sparked widespread protests that resulted in at least 16 deaths.1 Since taking office in 1982, the president has led Cameroon for over four decades.1
