dc.description.abstract | In this report the European Commission has approved changes to the controversial EU banana regime. These proposals are additional modifications to soften the criticisms against the regime. In the US, Federal and other officials are preparing for the planned Million Man March in Washington organized by the Nation of Islam. Professor Ron Walters of Howard University comments on the significance of the march. In Bermuda, there is a call for black men to stay away from work and form a march to coincide with the Washington action. In Guyana, there is growing complaints about the make-up of the commission of inquiry into the Omai Goldmine cyanide spill. The Working People's Alliance (WPA), Rupert Roopnarine expresses concern about the time table for the commission. CARICOM and Canadian officials meet to review issues of common interests and to bolster trade and economic relations between these states. In Washington there were continued attacks against Haiti's President Jean Bertrand Aristide during discussions on developments in Haiti. Russia is keen to complete an agreement with Cuba concerning its nuclear industry amidst US criticisms. Tinidadian-born broadcaster Trevor McDonald is to head a team set up by government to improve standards in spoken English. | en_US |
