30 April 2012


ST JOHN’S, Antigua -- Antigua continues its battle with the behemoth over online gambling with no sign yet of an accord, the Observer News reported.

Antigua took it's online gambling dispute with the United States to yet another WTO meeting last week, according to the report.

Antigua is frustrated by the United States pursuit and prosecution of online gambling operators on its territory and alleges that the US is breaching international trade agreements and should face sanctions, according to the Observer News.

The US meanwhile contends that it is Antigua who are holding up achieving a settlement, the report made note.
