dc.description.abstractIn this report: former Guyanese Army Sergeant and bomb expert Gregory Smith remains extremely reluctant to return to Guyana to give evidence in the inquiry into the death of Dr. Walter Rodney. In Montserrat, a British guard ship docked as part of contingency plans in the event the volcano at Chances Peak erupts. Governor Frank Savage comments on the situation following a series of explosions. Caribbean and Latin American leaders meet at the Defense Ministerial of the Americas to discuss hemispheric security issues. However, both regions are bringing their own agendas to the meeting. The question linking stability in the banana industry to security of banana-producing states appears to have united government and opposition in the Caribbean. The Opposition in Trinidad and Tobago states the government's bill to amend the constitution can turn the Speaker into the puppet of the government. Independent senators have indicated they will not support the bill in its present form. In Venezuela, the government plans to set aside parts of the State of Bolivar to allow small scale independent operators to mine for gold.en_US
