dc.description.abstractThis report highlights the possible cuts in British bilateral aid to the Caribbean. Aid agencies warn that it is part of a larger trend of the North turning their backs on the countries in the South. Christian Aid, Policy Director Paul Spray comments on how the Caribbean could expect to be affected. The World Trade Organization (WTO) has constituted its Court of Appeal as the highest level at which a country could appeal an international trade conflict. In Guyana, the General Manager of Omai Gold Mines, Re-jean Gourde has strongly rejected a statement by UN expert that the cyanide spill could have been prevented with better monitoring. Cuban President Fidel Castro makes his first official visit to China to improve bilateral relations and economic cooperation. In Washington, President Clinton's Special Advisor for Cuba, Richard Nuccio is under criminal investigation for allegedly divulging classified C.I.A. information. Meanwhile in cricket, the President of the West Indies Cricket Board of Control, Peter Short has rejected accusations of high handedness in the Lara controversy. Brian Lara's decision to opt out of the Australian tour continues to make headlines in the British press. Ten French observers are expected to monitor Haiti's presidential elections on December 17th.en_US
