		WASHINGTON, March 1 /U.S. Newswire/ -- As the U.S.-Central America Free Trade Agreement is implemented today with El Salvador, a coalition of solidarity organizations working with partners in Central America declare their intention to continue the struggle against the flawed accord, and denounced police repression of opposition voices in the region.
		Speaking to the limited options for the people of the region under the agreement, Chloe Schwabe of the Share Foundation said, "sweatshops are not a sustainable or dignified solution to the hundreds of thousands of jobs that will be lost in El Salvador's rural sector.
		In the face of President Saca's posturing about El Salvador being the first country to implement CAFTA, the message from the people continues to be total rejection of this disgraceful agreement," said Burke Stansbury of the Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador (CISPES).

	Cannabis Law Reform and Education Accord (CCLR)
		Most people who use cannabis do so moderately and responsibly, and rather than helping those people who need it, prohibition actually discourages those users who need help from seeking it, due to fear of arrest and incarceration.
		The Coalition is mindful of the experience of other jurisdictions who have introduced policies other than prohibition, and notes that in none of those jurisdictions did cannabis use rise, in real terms, following policy reform.
		There is a bias in the enforcement of cannabis prohibition resulting in a disproportionate number of Maori and young males convicted for cannabis offences.

		The people of East Germany were not accustomed to the commercial competition and they are experiencing even greater difficulty adjusting to the crime and xenophobia that have spread as consequences of a bleak job market.

	The U.S., Israel and the ‘Project to End Palestine’ [S&L Magazine]
		Palestine is one place where the political manifestation reflects the vast majority of the people.
		I believe that we need, as progressives, as people in the movement, to look at Palestine not in terms of the dichotomy between the Israelis or the Zionist forces on one side and the Palestinian people on the other, as if this is a dichotomy between two isolated parties.
		In the U.S., the A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition, United for Peace and Justice, MoveOn.org and all of these different formations that exist, whether in virtual space or in the streets, reflect a certain view.

		Fewer than a couple of hundred people across the country could explain the accord in detail, according to Tom D'Aquino of the Canadian Council of Chief Executives.

	Scoop: Progressive welcomes National's commitment
		Jim Anderton, who initiated the first multiparty National Accord on retirement Income a decade ago, said that only parties that have a "cynical disregard for retired people" still propose to dismantle the New Zealand Superannuation Fund established by the coalition government.

		For example, over the last four months, whenever I have campaigned at Grey Power meetings, the National party has seen fit to bombard vehicles outside the meetings with their paraphernalia, including parking their candidates’ vehicles, signatured, in the carpark.

	May 14, 1996 Vreme News Digest Agency No 240
		When the existing law was drafted the people who worked on it knew smaller electoral districts had the advantage of the electorate getting to know who they are voting for but chose bigger districts as being more in line with the proportional system.
		Under the Federal Government proposal, each of the 27 electoral districts in Serbia would elect three to six MPs (a total of 108) while Montenegro's districts would elect one to seven MPs (totaling 30) in accord with the constitutional principle that one MP represents 65,000 voters.
		If the opposition beats the SPS in Serbia it would have a hard time finding a coalition partner in Montenegro and if it did find a coalition partner in the Chamber of Citizens, the SPS which controls the Serbian parliament could block them in the Chamber of Republics.

	Guardian Unlimited Politics Special Reports 'Hard-right' Tory to lead London assembly
		Mr Livingstone lambasted the accord, saying: "I don't think people voted for the Liberal Democrats to see their assembly members put the leader of the hard-right wing of the Tory party, Brian Coleman, into the chair of the London assembly.
		Brian Coleman, the Tory member for Barnet & Camden, was elected chair of the 25-strong body after the Liberal Democrats decided to team up with the Conservatives to scrutinise the mayor, rather than ally themselves with a Labour/Green coalition.
		That deal means that there are now no committees chaired by Labour in the new assembly, which has the power to reject the Labour mayor's budget each year.

		The accord requires the Los Angeles World Airports to spend $15 million over a five-year period on training residents of Inglewood and Lennox and other communities affected by the airport upgrade-and-expansion plan for aviation- and airport-related jobs.

	Testimony on Peace Operations
		In some cases, peacekeeping missions can help along peace processes in these types of conflicts-though there is admittedly no guarantee of peace, unless a coalition led by the United States or one of a small number of capable countries is willing to use combat force to sustain or impose a peace.
		Humanitarian missions and peace operations have saved an uncertain number of people over this period, but possibly as many as several hundred thousand.
		U.S. willingness to support peace operations and protect innocent lives around the world is not, of course, the main reason for this desirable geopolitical state of affairs.

		The UN Observer Mission in Georgia (UNOMIG), consisting of about 115 military observers monitoring the ceasefire lines and a civilian component, was established in 1994 after an accord reached in Moscow ended fighting that had forced nearly 300,000 people to flee.
		The Georgian state is highly centralized, except for the autonomous regions of Abkhazia and Ajaria, which are to be given special autonomous status once Georgia's territorial integrity is restored.
		The instability in Georgia during the early 1990s led to the postponement of elections until November 1995, when President Shevardnaze and his ruling Union of Georgian Citizens party won the presidential elections with over 70 percent of the vote.
