The Liberian Senate has called on Britain to provide evidence of its claims that Liberia is supporting rebels in Sierra Leone, Star Radio reported today (Wednesday). The call was made by Senate President Charles Brumskine during a meeting with visiting British envoy Haydon Warren-Dash. Brumskine said the accusations against Liberia were “becoming an embarassment”. The British envoy replied that “continuous denials” by the Liberian government were not enough to prove its innocence, the radio said. He added that Liberia “must stop feeding rebels through its borders”.
