dc.description.abstractIn this report: A key witness for the commission of inquiry into the UN fund scandal in St. Lucia, Dr. Charles Flemming claims he has been receiving death threats and failed to appear before the commission. Karl Hudson-Phillips, Counsel for the commission questioned Dr. Flemming's absence. As the Barbados and the OECS countries negotiate an economic cooperation agreement, comparisons are being made with the 1979 accord between Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago. Montserrat's Chief Minister Reuben Meade wants to see closer cooperation between Barbados and the OECS but rules out political union at this stage. In Cuba the fourth Caribbean commercial fair, Expo Caribe 95 took place as Washington sought to blacklist Canada's mining giant Sherritt for doing business with Cuba. A Soviet submarine commander Yurick Ketov who was involved in the 1962 Cuban missile crisis told a Russian newspaper that Soviet submarines nearly launched their nuclear torpedoes at US navy ships off Cuba. In Jamaica, several thousand students will have to re-sit two papers in the Caribbean Examination Council (C.X.C.) examinations due to high levels of cheating.en_US
