dc.description.abstractIn this report, plans for European aid cuts against the backdrop of separate British aid cuts were severely criticized. The Secretary-General of the ACP Group Carl Greenidge comments that this means the Caribbean would be dealt a double body blow. In the US there are plans to slash in half the US contributions to the International Development Agency (IDA), a World Bank affiliate that lends money to the poorest countries. However, US President Bill Clinton promised that the US will not turn its back on the rest of the world and its poorest citizens. Barbadian Prime Minister Owen Arthur spoke on behalf of CARICOM and appealed to these lending institutions to understand the needs of developing countries. EU Agriculture Commissioner Franz Fischler continues to press for changes to the controversial EU import rules although they have worked well. In Trinidad, the opposition parties are keeping all their options open for a possible electoral arrangement. Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Oleg Soskovets paid the first ever visit to Cuba and called for the restoration of close trade and economic relations between the two countries. In cricket, the West Indies slip to a dramatic six run defeat against Sri Lanka in Sharjah. West Indies manager Andy Roberts praised Sri Lanka's performance. In Bermuda, residents are convinced that the Los Angeles police officer Mark Fuhrman has been holidaying on the island.en_US
