dc.description.abstract | Trinidad and Tobago will be sending a special envoy to a number of countries in the region to seek support for its candidate for Assistant Secretary-General of the Organization of American States (OAS). Voters in Saint Martin and Bonaire started the process of the Island Council elections in the Netherland Antilles. A key issue in this election is the huge debt of the central government of the Netherland Antilles and its implications for Saint Martin. The US government policy barring Americans from traveling to Cuba without special commission is once again being tested by a Washington Civil Rights group. Dr. Francisco Martinez, Head of the Cuban Institute for Friendship with Peoples, stated that British support is crucial in denouncing US plans to increase action against third countries trading with Cuba. The Privy Council in London has rejected an appeal from the man convicted of killing Jamaican reggae star Peter Tosh seven years ago. In cricket, lawyers for West Indies opener Desmond Haynes has filed a suit in the Barbados Supreme Court challenging the Cricket Board's decision to bar him from the series. One of Britain's largest retail chain, Marks and Spencer plans to expand in Germany and there is a chance that Windward Island bananas could also find a German niche market. | en_US |
