Further Arbitration Needed

The small island nation of Antigua asked the Word Trade Organisation (WTO) for further arbitration on the nation’s dispute with the United States. The U.S. not only violates a WTO treaty agreement concerning the online casinos gambling industry, but also hesitates to fully act negotiate compensation agreements with Antigua and Barbuda in addition to other nations affected by the U.S. internet gambling ban. The U.S. agreed earlier to have a settlement proposal submitted to the government of Antigua by the end of March for consideration. And though that deadline came and past without any acknowledgement from the U.S., Antigua announced that it recently received the anticipated online casinos gambling settlement offer and that a preliminary look has indicated that the settlement is less than the nation had hoped for in this dispute.

The U.S. is apparently content to play with fire on the issue – between consistently promised missing deadlines and then undervaluing compensation claims in terms of increased trade rights and monetary compensation. The Antiguan Minister of Finance and the Economy, Dr. Errol Cort announced that a settlement on the online casinos gambling issue had been submitted to the country, but that even so, the small island nation may consider further WTO arbitration on the dispute.

Antigua already has US $21 million in copyright sanctions on the U.S. that Antigua has announced will be used against the U.S. motion picture industry if the U.S. does not come to adequate compensation terms. Dr. Errol Cort’s only comment on the ongoing online casinos gambling negotiations noted that the settlement offer had been received. A recent statement noted that "…a proposal for the resolution of the trade dispute received from the U.S. last week has not been met favourably."

This issue could continue for months on end as the United States is in turmoil over the online casinos gambling issue. Many politicians are hesitant to resolve the debates and issues with the EU, Antigua, and other nations because the UIGEA may be repealed in the coming months.
