Two U.S. Congressmen are in Liberia for high-level discussions aimed at strengthening relations between the United States and the West African nation. The visit signals Washington’s interest in deeper engagement with Monrovia on political, economic, and security fronts.

U.S. Senator Jack Reed and Representative Gabe Amo, both from Rhode Island, arrived in the capital at the invitation of President Joseph Boakai. The lawmakers are meeting with Liberian officials to review bilateral cooperation and explore new areas of partnership.

Their visit focuses on assessing Liberia’s current political and economic landscape while identifying opportunities to support development initiatives and democratic governance.

Liberian authorities have welcomed the visit, expressing optimism that stronger U.S.–Liberia ties will help boost stability, investment, and long-term collaboration between the two nations.
