dc.description.abstractCaribbean bauxite and alumina producers will face serious problems if a US proposal to American President Bill Clinton is accepted. In Jamaica, Kingston is at a virtual standstill as a strike by tanker drivers led to a shortage of petrol at service stations. Trinidad steps up security inside its main prison following the disappearance of the master keys to the prison. At the UN Social Development Summit in Copenhagen, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) have produced an alternative declaration and have called for the cancellation of Third World debt. The French government confirmed that President Fidel Castro is to meet with French President Francois Mitterrand. Carlos Fernandez de Cossio, Director of US Affairs in Cuba's Foreign Ministry, responds to whether President Castro is likely to press for French support against the US trade embargo. The World Council of Churches has presented a report on racism in the United States to the UN Commission on Human Rights. In Barbados, a political and environmental controversy has been brewing over the selection of a particular site for the new sanitary landfill. Bertram Niles examines the issue and its lessons for waste disposal in the rest of the Caribbean. US officials state that security is a top concern in Haiti as the US prepares to end its peacekeeping mission on March 31st and handover duties to the United Nations.en_US
