Although Antiguan Prime Minister Vere Bird has not indicated any plans to relinquish office, Member of Parliament Lester Bird says he’s willing to lead the Antiguan Labour Party into the next election. President of the Caribbean Development Bank Sir Neville Nicholls encourages more speed in achieving Caribbean integration as international aid donors are expressing concern over the high cost of maintaining aid and diplomatic relations with individual countries. The Central Bank Governor of Belize Keith Arnold believes Belize can be instrumental in fostering a strong regional economic union between the Caribbean Community and Central America. Several police officers in St. Lucia engage in a demonstration against the sentencing of a colleague to two days in prison by a magistrate for contempt. Meanwhile the country’s dock workers stage a go slow. The debate by Haitian lawmakers on an OAS accord to restore President Aristide to power has been postponed till next week. Top Communist Party Aide Carlos Aldana says that US presidential campaigners are setting Washington against Castro’s government. Finally, Cuban authorities claim that Haiti is obstructing the repatriation of one thousand Haitian refugees being housed at five camps in East Cuba.en_US
