dc.description.abstractAfter a meeting between the Jamaican Prime Minister, Michael Manley, and the United States President George Bush in Washington, the United States promises to assist with Jamaica’s economic development and praises Jamaica’s contribution to regional affairs. High on the agenda for Jamaica was the priority to secure US financing to fight drug trafficking and enlist the assistance of the Americans in persuading the World Bank to extend the repayment of Jamaica’s existing debt. David Core, Jamaica’s Foreign Minister, also commented on the reaction of the United States to Jamaica’s relationship with Cuba. Following the Financial News, the general elections of the Dominican Republic is less than two weeks away and growing tension amongst campaigners is prevalent. Since the beginning of the election campaign, four people have been killed and more than thirty have been injured in clashes between the main candidates. The report concludes with an animal breeding improvement scheme in Antigua. A shipment of four pigs and four sheep left London for Antigua with the intention to form the core of a cross-breeding project on the island.en_US
