The United States President,
Donald Trump has given thousands of Liberian migrants to the U.S, who have been
living in America since the 1991 civil war, one year of grace to leave the
United States.
The President, in a letter to the
Department of Homeland Security, stated that he would accord the Liberians a
12-month “wind-down” period to prepare their departure.
He wrote, “Through consultation
with appropriate executive departments and agencies and my advisors, I have
been informed that conditions in Liberia have improved.
“Liberia is no longer
experiencing armed conflict and has made significant progress in restoring
stability and democratic governance,” he argued.
While admitting that the 2014
outbreak of the Ebola virus in West Africa had brought “tragic loss of lives
and economic damage” to Liberia, he expressed satisfaction with the progress
made by the country in tackling the disease.
