    In this report, plans for European aid cuts against the backdrop of separate British aid cuts were severely criticized. The Secretary-General of the ACP Group Carl Greenidge comments that this means the Caribbean would be dealt a double body blow. In the US there are plans to slash in half the US contributions to the International Development Agency (IDA), a World Bank affiliate that lends money to the poorest countries. However, US President Bill Clinton promised that the US will not turn its back on the rest of the world and its poorest citizens. Barbadian Prime Minister Owen Arthur spoke on behalf of CARICOM and appealed to these lending institutions to understand the needs of developing countries. EU Agriculture Commissioner Franz Fischler continues to press for changes to the controversial EU import rules although they have worked well. In Trinidad, the opposition parties are keeping all their options open for a possible electoral arrangement. Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Oleg Soskovets paid the first ever visit to Cuba and called for the restoration of close trade and economic relations between the two countries. In cricket, the West Indies slip to a dramatic six run defeat against Sri Lanka in Sharjah. West Indies manager Andy Roberts praised Sri Lanka's performance. In Bermuda, residents are convinced that the Los Angeles police officer Mark Fuhrman has been holidaying on the island.

    The Sunday Correspondent Newspaper in Britain provides details of the Antiguan connection in the purchase of arms from Israel which ended up in the hands of Columbia’s most notorious drug baron. The author of the article comments on alleged involvement of Vere Bird Junior and other Antiguan officials in the political scandal, the relationships with the arms agents and the upcoming judicial inquiry. Secondly, all the opinion polls leading up the next general elections in the Dominican Republic put Juan Bosch and the PLD party in the lead. However, President Balaguer and his party are optimistic on winning the elections after a massive turnout of support at their last public meeting and dismiss claims of election rigging. Following the Financial News, Professor Anthony Bryan, Director of the Institute of International Relations, UWI, St. Augustine laments on the pace of progress towards full regional integration in the Caribbean. With the looming single European market and the US, Canada and Mexico moving towards a free-trade area, many Caribbean leaders are only now seriously considering regional integration but are hesitant to give up their national sovereignty for the cause. In the final segment, scientists from the Caribbean and India are conducting a 45-day marine survey by visiting the exclusive economic zones of the countries participating in the survey. The information acquired from the survey will be made available to all the countries within the region for the management of the marine resources.

    In this report: Jamaica's ruling party, the People's National Party has given the thumbs down for the introduction of casino gambling. Dr. Brian Meeks, a Jamaican political analyst, indicated that he was a little surprised about this decision but stated popular opinion was not overly in favour of casino gambling. A Methodist Synod held in French St. Martin marked a new moral era for the Caribbean community. A common Christian culture was the main focus and Reverend Livingston Malcolm pointed to a moral revolution emerging in Caribbean Christianity today. Dr. Anthony Bryan, Director of Caribbean Studies at the University of Miami, responded to questions about the collapse of the Mexican peso and whether it affected Mexico's position as a magnet for investment. In cricket, all-rounder, Carl Hooper is unable to join the West Indies team on its New Zealand tour since he had not recovered in time. John Rawling reports that former WBC heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis had selected Emanuel Steward as his new trainer.

    In Bermuda, representatives of Britain's Caribbean dependent territories arrive at a complete consensus on the review of their relationship with Britain. The CARICOM audit team to examine Guyana's elections faces a major hurdle regarding the composition of this team. However, CARICOM Chairman Dr. Keith Mitchell is sure of the support of all the parties involved. On the second day of the papal visit to Cuba, Pope John Paul II has publicly denounced the American embargo on Cuba. Professor Anthony Bryan of Miami University comments on how much weight this denouncement will actually carry. The President of the Regional Council of Guadeloupe, Lucette Michaux-Chevry has been placed under official penal investigation for the second time in two months. The organizers of this year's Commonwealth Games in Malaysia have assured that the games will not be affected by the economic problems in East Asia. Research published in the medical journal, The Lancet, suggests that the human eye cannot keep pace with everything that is happening on the football field. Hence, it is not necessarily the referee's fault if he makes the wrong decision sometimes.
