The Liberian Civil War (1989-2003) ended in August 2003 with the
signing of the Accra Comprehensive Peace Agreement. Shortly thereafter,
the United Nations Security Council established the United Nations
Mission in Liberia through Resolution 1509. Since then, the Government
of the Republic of Liberia has depended on UNMIL’s military and police
components to maintain peace and stability in the country. Security
responsibilities in the country were successfully handed over to the
Government of the Republic of Liberia on 30 June 2016 as reported by
the United Nations Security Council Resolution 2333 (2016). However, a
detailed analysis of the current situation of Liberia raises a serious concern
regarding the possibility of lasting peace without the support of UNMIL.
