There's plenty more information to add from here, if anyone cares to. Most of it's U.S.-centric, though, so I've left it out (other people may disagree). --KQ

Trivia removal just now

I removed this:

In October 2022, a memorandum of understanding was signed with Liberland, which caused public critics in the country.

Per the two surviving sources: a minister, probably somewhat preoccupied because in the process of being sacked, gets badgered by some con men who convince him to sign a piece of paper that announces some unspecified "memorandum" of "understanding". He is either being hoodwinked or he signs the thing to get the annoying cranks out of his office, who knows. In either case nothing further happens – no laws are enacted, no ordinances passed, no contracts are written, no diplomats despatched; no trade is made, no goods move, no money changes hands. Several months after taking office, the minister’s successor has never even heard of the “memorandum” until some journalists point it out to him. In other words, it doesn’t affect the foreign relations of Malawi one way or the other, either legally or factually. It’s a faintly embarrassing (for the minister) bit of trivia that doesn’t need to clutter up this article. GR Kraml (talk) 20:11, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
