Liberia, which is already suffering under UN sanctions over alleged links with rebels in Sierra Leone, is now faced with another sanction – on mail leaving and coming into the country.
International postal bodies and airlines have imposed the embargo because of Liberia’s inability to pay its huge debts to those companies.
They include the Universal Postal Union, the Pan African Postal Union, Ghana Airways and the giant Dutch airline, KLM.
Liberia owes KLM alone around $250,000 in carriage fees.
