Chad’s parliament has overwhelmingly approved a constitutional amendment removing presidential term limits—a move critics say is designed to help President Mahamat Idriss Deby stay in power longer. Deby first took power in 2021 after rebels killed his father, longtime ruler Idriss Deby Itno, in a gun battle that ended his 30 years in power. He was then elected head of state in May 2024 for five years in a contested vote boycotted by most opposition parties. The reform also creates a deputy prime minister post, extends parliamentary terms from five to six years, and restores immunity for government officials.

A Malawi-based human rights body says survivors of gender-based violence (GBV) are punished instead of being protected, with little recourse to state protection from abusive partners.

The United States continues to welcome legitimate travelers. However, foreign nationals have no right to remain in the United States. They must respect the terms of their admission and all applicable U.S. laws. Our security screening does not stop after visa issuance or entry to the United States - if an individual is arrested, breaks the law, or misuses a U.S. visa, it may be revoked and the individual may be deported.

The U.S. Embassy in Monrovia congratulates Liberia on its election to a non-permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council for the 2026–2027 term. This milestone underscores Liberia's commitment to global peace and its leadership in the region. We look forward to our continued partnership in addressing international challenges.
