Legalization of cannabis, Hoxha shows Rama 'trick': Laboratory costs 500 thousand euros
One of the questions that will be addressed to the citizens in the National Counseling questionnaire, is the legalization of cannabis, whether they will be for or against.
Journalist Artan Hoxha shows that the cultivation of cannabis for medical purposes has a 'trick'. According to Hoxha, to make a laboratory for such purposes requires at least 500 thousand euros and a license from an EU pharmacy. According to the journalist, this does not help reduce cannabis quantities, but gives licenses to some countries that have strong ties with the state.
"I have been dealing with the denunciation of cannabis cultivation in Albania for 25 years. Cannabis is found everywhere in local 9-year schools in neighborhood corners. Today he finds cannabis for 1 minute, just open his mouth. Today the quality of cannabis used in Albania is many times better than before. We have created an internal market by destroying the budget of the Albanian family and youth. I've dealt with this story early. At the time when it was PD then PS and the accusation was always to promote the image of Albania.
It is 3 times that the legalization of cannabis is discussed and unfortunately in the first two times this discussion has been accompanied by 2 golden years for narco-trafficking that they have filled Albania with cannabis. Koço Kokëdhima became the promoter of this debate for the first time. In 2016 it was much discussed when it was the golden year of cannabis.
We now only have cannabis indoors. The message of the prime minister we will cultivate for the producers is like the same permission, we have permission to give it. Cannabis in Albania in recent years due to the sophistication of organized crime is planted in a controlled manner.
A new seed has been cultivated since 2021. Is this the trick with medical cannabis? The cannabis that Rama speaks is the cannabis that is planted in Albania does not have thc, that gorilla has thc.
To do this you have to set up a laboratory that makes 500 thousand euros. Which farmer does this and you need to have a license from an EU pharmacy. This type of business will not help reduce the amount of cannabis, it will do the opposite, it will give licenses to some countries that have strong ties with the state. Cannabis grown in Albania is another matter. "Rama should do what has been done in some US states" , said the journalist.
