In a continuing saga of US and Antigua trying to arrive to a compromise about US banning internet gambling, which was a large industry in Antigua, Antigua’s finance minister says it could take several more months to resolve an Internet gambling feud with the U.S.The countries have been at odds since the World Trade Organization last year ruled the island could impose retaliatory sanctions for a U.S. ban on online betting.
The World Trade Organization says the island can impose US$21 million in sanctions against the U.S.
Finance Minister Errol Cort says officials will know in about three months whether a compromise agreement is feasible.
Court said Friday that officials agreed to extend a July 11 deadline after a U.S. delegation recently arrived in Antigua for another round of talks.
