Liberia

Liberia faces critical energy security challenges due to its 100% oil import dependency and low 12-day gasoline reserves, exacerbated by the ongoing global supply disruption and high Brent crude prices. Gasoline costs have surged to $1.28/L, placing immense pressure on the economy and local transport, with the Monrovia port supply chain already under strain. The nation's critical food risk and a 72% increase in fertilizer costs further compound the crisis, threatening agricultural output and food security. Without significant external aid or a rapid resolution to the global oil crisis, Liberia's economic stability and humanitarian situation are expected to deteriorate further in the coming weeks.
