I congratulate President Weah for his electoral victory and reiterate the support of the United Nations on this new path towards sustaining peace and sustainable development. The United Nations peacekeeping operation, which has supported you every step of the way, has successfully completed its mandate. The United Nations mission has provided continued support aimed at increasing community participation and deepening ownership. UNMIL contributed to reconciliation efforts in eight counties -- Grand Gedeh, Margibi, Bong, Sinoe, Lofa, Rivercess, Nimba and Grand Cape Mounth. The Social Cohesion and Reconciliation index for Liberia shows that we need to increase reconciliation efforts in Grand Cape Mount, Rivercess, Sinoe and elsewhere.
