Cannabis in Vatican City

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki




Cannabis in Vatican City is illegal.

Vatican City is not a cannabis producer due to the small size of the country.[1]

Legalization considerations[edit]

In June, 2014, Pope Francis spoke out on considering fully legalizing cannabis in Vatican City for recreational and medical purposes despite cannabis being forbidden for use by Catholics. Francis has also frequently met drug addicts around the world.[2]

In June, 2017, Ghanian Cardinal Peter Turkson also added that "cannabis tends to damage judgement on ethnicity" due to cannabis being a gateway drug.[3]
