As important as this Legislative action was, it will not by itself ensure that Liberia is moved from the watchlist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Outlining reasons for Liberia downgrade to Tier 2, the State Department, in the TIP report released in July 2021 said Liberia did not fully meet the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking but is making significant efforts to do so.<\/p>\n<p>These efforts included opening a new shelter for child trafficking victims, initiating an investigation into a high-profile labor trafficking case in cooperation with foreign governments, and allocating funding to NGOs to conduct awareness raising campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>However, it said the government did not demonstrate overall increasing efforts compared to the previous reporting period, even considering the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its anti-trafficking capacity.<\/p>\n<p>It reported that the government identified fewer victims, initiated fewer investigations, prosecuted fewer defendants, and did not convict any traffickers.<\/p>\n<p>The report indicated that law enforcement officials continued to lack adequate resources and understanding of trafficking to effectively investigate and prosecute trafficking crimes. \u201cShelter services for victims remained insufficient, and the government did not support NGOs providing care to victims. Therefore, Liberia was downgraded to Tier 2 Watch List,\u201d the State Department declared.<\/p>\n<p>However, in its recommendations, it called for increased efforts to investigate and prosecute trafficking cases, including internal trafficking cases and officials accused of complicity; train law enforcement and judicial officials on identifying, investigating, and prosecuting trafficking cases under the 2005 anti-trafficking law; among others.<\/p>\n<p>Ambassador McCarthy made a repeated call on the government to increase investigations and prosecutions of trafficking cases.<\/p>\n<p>He said \u201cIf this is done well, it will naturally lead to more convictions. Traffickers must face justice, the laws must be enforced, and victims must have access to services.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He disclosed that reporting for the 2022 TIP report is ongoing now, and the U.S. Government is closely following cases that are making their way through the justice system. \u201cIf at the end of all of these cases there are no convictions, then what is the new law?\u201d, he asked rhetorically.<\/p>\n<p><b>\u2018Commitment of Support\u2019<\/b><\/p>\n<p>He, then pledged that as long as the Liberian government is making an effort to combat the scourge of human trafficking and child labor, the United States will continue to support those efforts. Currently, he said the U.S. is providing technical assistance \u2013 such as embedded advisors, training, and advice \u2013 and continued active participation in the Ministry of Labor\u2019s national Anti-Human Trafficking Taskforce.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Ambassador said since 2005, the United States has committed more than US$149.5 million to support civilian security and justice sector programs. These programs, he noted, increase the capacity of Liberia\u2019s civilian security agencies and the Ministry of Justice to maintain peace and stability in Liberia and to become a more effective partner with the United States and other West African countries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
