dc.description.abstractIn this report the excerpts of the final speeches made by the Prime Ministers of St. Vincent, St. Kitts/Nevis and Dominica at the 50th Anniversary ceremony of the UN are highlighted. Journalist Rickey Singh comments on whether past leaders would have missed this chance to press regional concerns. Dr. Sahadeo Basdeo, former Foreign Minister of Trinidad and Tobago criticises Caribbean leaders for this missed opportunity. Meanwhile, Cuban President Fidel Castro uses the UN anniversary to hold meetings with interested American businessmen. However, the Helms-Burton bill has created a situation of uncertainty as to what it could mean for the future. In Miami, Cuban American exiles are up in arms about the amount of air time and attention President Castro received during his visit to the US. Cuban journalist Olance Nogueras Roce speaks about his ordeal after he was arrested for writing about the Juraguas nuclear plant. Media workers in Dominica have accused the government of Prime Minister Edison James of attempting to erode press freedom.en_US
