United Nations Mission in Liberia: Statements.

 

In June 2003, a UN backed court indicted Mr. Taylor for crimes against humanity during the civil war in Sierra Leone. Much is needed to revive the country, which was once one of Africa's richest. It does not have functioning electrical systems or roads and hundreds of thousands of civilians are living as refugees. The power sharing Government is scheduled to take over. That will lead to elections and a democratically elected Government in early 2005.
