Theresa Daniel reports on the drug eradication efforts of the US and local forces in St. Vincent and whether there is the political and economic will to deal with drug trafficking. Dr. Philip Brenner, a Professor of International Relations at the American University in Washington, analyses what the US hopes to achieve with its drug eradication programme. In Jamaica, thousands of commuters are experiencing a third day of travel chaos on the streets of the capital. The OAS Human Rights Committee is urging the US to end restrictions on the shipping of food and medicines to Cuba. Meanwhile, French companies have wound up a trade mission to Cuba with the announcement of plans for a number of joint ventures. The body of a Canadian holiday maker, who was shot to death in Antigua, was flown home to Canada for burial. In the British Virgin Islands, the first Legislative Council, with both representatives of Districts and At-Large representatives, was sworn in. The Australian cricket team arrives in Barbados for the start of their series in the region. Bertram Niles reports on the atmosphere surrounding the approaching series.
