dc.description.abstractThe Annual Miami, Caribbean and Latin American Conference came to a close and the NAFTA and its implications for the Caribbean were high in the agenda. United States and European negotiators meet in Brussels as part of an intensive effort to break the seven year deadlock holding talks on the general agreement on tariffs and trade. Peter Sutherland, GATT Director General stresses the urgent need for a conclusion. In St. Kitts and Nevis Dr. Kennedy Simons has been sworn in as Prime Minister for a fourth time – this comes after Dr. Kennedy persuaded the Nevis Reformation Party to join them to form a coalition government . Cuba prides itself on its free universal health care, but because the country lacks hard currency – hospitals and clinics often lack medical supplies and equipment. However, supplies have been sent by many governments and individual groups. The World Health Organization estimates that there are 13 million people worldwide affected with HIV and expected to rise to 14 million by the year 2000.en_US
