The deputy of the Democratic Party, Tritan Shehu, said that 99% of cannabis is used as a drug, while in medicine it is experimental.
Also, he stated that Albania does not have the capacity to produce cannabis for experimental purposes.
"The main use, 99% of the amount of cannabis is as a drug. A small amount of it is used in scientific experiments, it is also used in medicine. There are many other drugs that are used in medicine. It's opiates, it's cocaine after deep industrial processing by a very sophisticated industry. Cannabis is still in the experimental phase, in the phase of scientific study. In Albania, there is no capacity for scientific experiments and for the processing of cannabis, the first. Second, the market demand for the medical use of cannabis is very small, because there is no widespread use, only experimental and scientific use.
In Italy, for example, which is a large country and has scientific research, a very small amount of cannabis is produced for scientific research, but it is produced under the control of the army, no one else has it, it is the Italian army that controls the production of cannabis for reasons scientific", said Shehu for 'Euronews'.
We remind you that two days ago, the Council of Ministers approved the draft law on the legalization of cannabis for medical use. In a press release, the Minister of Health, Ogerta Manastirliu, explained that this draft law defines the regulatory framework for how the process will be initiated to control the cultivation and processing of the cannabis plant and the production of its by-products for medical and industrial purposes.
