Out of 154 countries, Albania ranks 7th after Morocco, Afghanistan, Spain, the Netherlands, Pakistan and Lebanon.

Albania managed to surpass Kyrgyzstan, Iran, Nepal and India, which completed the list of 11 main countries for the cultivation and distribution of cannabis out of 154 countries.

Our country has also been mentioned for the so-called Balkan road for heroin trafficking, which starts in Pakistan and passes through Syria, Turkey, Greece and Albania before continuing to the countries of Western Europe.

According to the UN report, the legalization of cannabis in some countries has contributed to the increase of users of this drug, although it is often claimed that legalization has the opposite effect. It also reports an increase in the use of cocaine, synthetic drugs, and deficiencies in drug problem treatment mechanisms, especially for women. Euronews Albania
