Some time ago, a WTO arbitrator granted $21 million per year that the USA had to pay to Antigua and Barbuda in order to cover their losses due to the UIGEA. But hitherto the Caribbean have to keep waiting when the United States will pay off its online gambling damages. The US have been changing deadlines that is considered to be a failure on the US behalf to negotiate bona fade and take the required initiative over the online casino gambling matter.

The sides have changed the planned deadline for friendly reasons twice before the latest rescheduling. The last time the USA sent a diplomatic team in order to handle the internet gambling issue just three days after the expiration time. John Veroneau, the Deputy US Trade Representative, arrived with a brief visit in Antigua and after the negotiations with Dr. Errol Cort, Minister of Finance and Economy, a new deadline was set on 1, August.

Cort expects the USA to take two to three months more to arrange a way to pay off the gambling damages. Dr. Errol Cort has added that the deadlines aren’t necessary to be kept firmly to put pressure on two countries to keep on meetings and negotiations on casino gambling damages.

The United States were given a chance to excuse their behavior as there’s a network of organizations which are involved in this case. The United States did not give any comments, and Antigua citizens and businessmen aren’t all supporting Cort in his patient position.
