In a surprising turn of events, President George Weah has instructed Foreign Minister Maxwell Kemayah to rescind Liberia’s recent decision at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (Cop28), which supported the continuation of the war in the Gaza strip. President Weah, seemingly unaware of the decision, expressed his deep disapproval, labeling it as an act of wickedness that goes against the principles of peace and humanity.

Addressing the congregation at his Forky Klon Jlateh Family Fellowship Church on Sunday, located along the Robert Field Highway, President Weah passionately spoke out against the decision made on behalf of Liberia at Cop28. He asserted that he has consistently advocated for peace at various regional and international gatherings, emphasizing that he cannot endorse or support any actions that contribute to the ongoing conflict in Gaza.

President Weah, a former soccer legend, used his platform to make a powerful statement on the importance of promoting peace and ending violence in conflict zones. He stressed that the decision to support the continuation of the war in Gaza was not in line with Liberia’s commitment to global peace and harmony.

The Liberian leader took the opportunity to urge Foreign Minister Maxwell Kemayah to take immediate action and ensure that Liberia’s stance at the UN is changed from supporting the continuation of the war to advocating for an end to the conflict in Gaza. The President emphasized the urgency of the matter, expressing his desire to rectify the situation promptly.

This swift reversal of Liberia’s position reflects President Weah’s commitment to upholding humanitarian values and contributing to global efforts for peace. The decision to withdraw support for the Gaza war aligns with Liberia’s historical stance as a supporter of peace and stability in the international arena.

As the international community watches, Liberia’s about-face on this issue signals a change in perspective and a strong commitment to principles that prioritize the well-being of innocent civilians caught in conflict zones. President Weah’s decision underscores the importance of leadership in fostering a world where nations work together to build a peaceful and just global community.

It remains to be seen how this decision will be received by the international community and what impact it will have on Liberia’s diplomatic relations. Nevertheless, President Weah’s unwavering commitment to promoting peace and condemning violence sends a powerful message about Liberia’s dedication to being a responsible and compassionate member of the global community.
