Criminal activities in the Gulf of Guinea pose a significant threat to lives and global trade. This global program will go a long way to curtail the threat\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Also speaking after the signing, Admiral Credendino said Liberia is an important and critical addition due to its strategic location, its position as a major flag and port state. \u201cBy joining T-RMN, Liberia has completed a key part of the link\u201d, he said. The T-RMN collaboration, which brings together 38 maritime countries including Italy, Australia, France, United State, United Kingdom, Senegal, Spain and Germany among others, is an operational network which uses modern technology and naval assets to mitigate threats to maritime safety around the world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
