Officials from these European nations met a few days ago to talk about legalizing recreational cannabis, marking the first of what may be several other joint meetings that could include other countries later on.
Cannabis law reform is currently sweeping the European continent, though the United Nations prevents member states from legalizing recreational marijuana. However, the countries released a joint statement staying that while their meeting didn’t end with major decisions, officials know that keeping a prohibitionist stance on marijuana is not going to be met without criticism. In addition, their statement says that it’s the “first multilateral exchange” with the intentions of discussing how marijuana can be regulated for both use that is not medical nor scientific.
