The comments, letter, and clarification suggest that she considered the <i>status quo</i> for gay rights in Liberia to be one of <i>de facto</i> tolerance until the recent controversy, and did not support decriminalization of homosexuality, but also refused to support further criminalisation of homosexual acts which was being attempted in Liberia.
