A policy on cannabis less repressive. This is what can be seen from the referendum voted by the voters of the Slovenia last June 9th, called to vote in the European Parliament elections.
In particular, Slovenian citizens had to respond to two referendum questions:
1. "The Republic of Slovenia should allow the cultivation and processing of cannabis for medical purposes on its territory?".
2. "The Republic of Slovenia should allow the cultivation and possession of cannabis for personal use limited to its territory?"
Questions that both received the consent of the population.
In fact, as you read, come on official results, the first passed with 66% of votes in favor out of almost 700 thousand voters. And the second instead with just under 52%.
A result that, although non-binding, given that the referendum was only consultative, leaves no doubt about the path that the government forces should take. That of legalization.
An increasingly green world (cannabis)
While in Italy an amendment has been presented that would like also ban light cannabis, the rest of the world is moving towards less repressive policies.
The last country in chronological order was South Africa, which officially opened at the end of May legalized cannabis for personal use.
Germany follows, which after legalization started on April 1st, is already doing well working on complete regulation, which would kickstart the state's cannabis market.
