Overview Summary International Standards: The Paris Principles Important Factors ... Acknowledgements Origin and Mandate Staffing and Appointment Procedures Activities Funding Assessment Origin and Mandate On July 19, 1997, Liberia's seven year war was finally ended through a U.N.-sanctioned election that swept former faction leader Charles Taylor and his party into power with 75 percent of the vote and a corresponding 75 percent majority in the legislature, giving him seventy of the ninety legislative seats. Ultimately, over a dozen peace accords and almost twenty cease-fire agreements were signed during the countless negotiations for peace that led to the elections. Despite the presence of regional peacekeepers from 1990, the ECOWAS Cease-Fire Monitoring Organization (ECOMOG) , joined by a U.N. military observer mission in 1993, fighting resumed numerous times during the war, and the number of factions proliferated over the years. All the factions to different degrees were responsible for terrorizing the local populations in order to look and to discourage support for local factions. The widespread atrocities against civilians included extrajudicial executions, torture, including rape, forced labor, and extortion. The factions consisted predominantly of bands of armed fighters, some as young as ten years of age, with no formal military training. The repeated breakdown of the peace process can be attributed to a number of factions including the internal factionalization of the warring factions along ethnic lines, and their economic and political incentives for continuing the war. The proliferation of these groups was encouraged by the creation and support of anti-Taylor factions by the former government army and ECOMOG.

Roosevelt Library in Hyde Park, New York.(picture taken by: Joseph Tellewoyan) American-Liberia Relations During World War II Although he supported the policies of the Liberian Government, Lester Walton was critical of the corruption and the human rights violation perpetrated by Liberian Government officials against their own people. In a letter to the US State Department dated March 2, 1940, Ambassador Walton noted that there were Liberian officials who had "...the reputation for acquiring a big bank account on a small salary." On the human rights violation against the indigenous people, an act that had caused the United States to suspend recognition of the Barclay Administration, Walton wrote Harry Mcbride he served in Liberia as Financial Advisor to the Liberian Government under the Loan Agreementthat, "Forced labor, vicious exploitation of the natives by Frontier Force, unjust and excessive fines are some of the contributory factors to occasion resentment and dissatisfaction, impelling many natives to reluctantly settle in Sierra Leone."
