. Liberia

NPR's Jennifer Ludden reports that international relief agencies are agonizing over whether to return to Liberia. Most aid groups were forced to abandon the country last month, when renewed fighting shattered the country's fragile peace. Mostly teenage militias ransacked relief agencies' offices and stole their equipment and supplies. Aid workers worry that even if the situation stabilizes and they do return to Liberia, there are no guarantees that things won't deteriorate again.
