While his reformist party is declaring him president, the two main opposition parties are claiming serious electoral malpractice and fraud. Secondly, a draft proposal by Britain on restricting of the banana market after 1992 is causing alarm amongst Caribbean banana producers. In the proposal, Britain is requesting a quota on the import of bananas to the EEC which is deemed by some analyst as impractical and could lead to a drastic fall in the price of bananas for Caribbean countries.
