Seeks compensation for the harm caused by interference with its internet gambling operations by the United States. The tiny West Indies nation of Antigua is threatening to take a dispute with the United States to new heights unless it sees its grievances properly addressed and losses compensated for. The case apparently dates back to 2003 when Antigua first claimed that the US unlawfully prevented its online gambling operators from accessing American markets although the US allowed domestic online bets for sporting events like horse racing. Antigua claimed $3.4 billion in losses and took its grievance to the WTO, which agreed, but awarded only $21 million in damages.
