A latest report has confirmed that the Government of Liberia has reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining peace and security along its border with Guinea, with both nations agreeing to resolve all outstanding boundary disputes through dialogue and diplomatic cooperation.
Speaking Tuesday during the Ministry of Information’s regular press briefing, Minister of Information Jerolinmek Matthew Piah disclosed that an agreement was reached among the presidents of Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone during a recent regional summit hosted in Côte d’Ivoire.
According to Minister Piah, the three leaders emphasized the importance of regional stability, peaceful coexistence and mutual development as foundations for lasting security in the Mano River Basin.
“Both Liberia and Guinea agreed to settle any outstanding border disputes amicably to strengthen peace, security, and cooperation between the two nations,” Piah stated. He added that the agreement reflects the broader commitment of West African leaders to preserve harmony and advance development through diplomatic engagement rather than confrontation.
The minister noted that discussions focused on longstanding border concerns and mechanisms for joint monitoring, cross-border trade and community relations to prevent tensions from escalating.
Minister Piah stressed that the Boakai administration remains dedicated to working closely with Conakry to ensure that border communities live in peace and that disagreements are addressed through established diplomatic channels and mutual understanding. The renewed commitment comes amid broader regional efforts to consolidate peace and foster economic integration across West Africa’s shared borders.
