dc.description.abstractJamaica’s sugar workers strike and call on Prime Minister Michael Manley and Agriculture Minister Seymour Mullings to intervene in stalled negotiations with employers. Barbados Prime Minister Erskine Sandiford has been asked to intervene in a wage stand-off between sugar workers and industry managers. Dominica’s Prime Minister Dame Eugenia Charles continues her tour of Europe to secure support for Caribbean bananas in European markets. The EC Commissioners are still to decide on the complex banana protocol which could put Caribbean banana producers at a disadvantage with its big Latin American competitors. Both the West Indies and New Zealand cricket teams meet in their first World Cup clash. In a first official visit to Havana the West Indian Commission chairman, Sir Shridath Ramphal and President Fidel Castro agree that there can be no Caribbean integration without Cuba. The Cuban News Agency lashes out against its former allies in Eastern Europe who sided with the US to achieve a resolution condemning Cuba before the UN Human Rights Commission, branding them as the new aligned imperialism.en_US
