That's a token gesture if ever i've seen one. Yes Antigua you're right so we'll rule in your favor, but we don't want to place sanctions against the US that might actually make them angry - so we'll place sanctions that will be insignificant to them in consequence.
BBC reported it.. I think it will have a major impact seeing that some of the politicizations have an interest in the Bahamas. Lots of US currency sitting there. The gov is not going to just take a toke. It is a big deal. A few of us were almost shot there for 400k.
In the grand scheme of things $21M is nothing to the US government. I'll bet that they get sued by there own employees for far more than this ever year, so claiming that this is some sort of sanction is very weak. That amount of money isn't worth a ball hair in the US budget.
