lpv:translated text	"− Almost 45% of Liberia is covered by forest, and the country hosts over half of West Africa’s remaining rain forests. The protracted civil war, which lasted from 1997 to 2003, saw the forestry sector deeply involved. Timber revenues were used to fuel the conflict, which led to the imposition of sanctions by the UN Security Council on Liberian timber imports. Along with establishing a partnership tool to enable Liberia to halt illegal deforestation and forest degradation contributing to climate change, the Voluntary Partnership Agreement (VPA) should improve market opportunities for Liberian timber products in European and other international markets. Thereby it can be expected to contribute positively also to Liberia’s overall development and growth."@en1
