SPECIAL INTERVIEW: Retiring U.S. Ambassador to Liberia, Mark Toner
Description
In this special bonus episode of Democracy in Focus, Anthony Stephens has an exclusive interview with Ambassador Mark Toner on his decision to retire just one year into his two year post.
Ambassador Toner's announcement came a day before Liberian President Joseph Boakai had a coveted meeting at the White House with U.S. President Donald Trump. Toner denied his decision had anything to do with a special request that the Wall Street Journal alleged was sent to President Boakai before the White House meeting, that he take third country nationals as part of President Trump's mission to deport millions of undocumented migrants from the U.S.
