Its quite a month for good news from the Jubilee Front!
PROGRESS FOR LIBERIA! On November 12th, the IMF announced that it had found the necessary funding to clear Liberia's arrears to the IMF, thus paving the way for debt cancellation for Liberia. This is great news, and a real breakthrough.
Your efforts -- the Valentines you sent early in the year and the letters you sent in October -- made a critical difference. Thank you.
While this news is an important breakthrough, the journey towards complete debt cancellation of Liberia's unjust and illegitimate debt has only just begun. We will continue to accompany the people of Liberia as they pass through the debt relief process, urging that Liberia not be subjected to harmful economic conditions and the predatory actions of vulture funds. We will need your continued support as Liberia continues its critical journey towards economic justice.
