Georgian officials consider legalizing cannabis

The Council for Drug Policy under the Georgian Ministry of Health and Social Welfare announced that cannabis might be legalized in this Trans-Caucasian country.

"Introducing such amendments to the country’s legislation will reduce the number of drug-related crimes," council chairperson Tamara Sirbiladze told Novosti-Georgia.

Proposals to legalize the use of marijuana will be discussed in the near future at a special conference arranged by the council’s press club.
