EU supports WHO on Cannabis/CBD

The EU and its Member States welcome the broad consensus of the international community that the three main drug control Conventions and the relevant international human rights instruments, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, are the cornerstone of the international drug control system. We support the important role played by the WHO Expert Committee on Drug Dependence (ECDD), and we acknowledge that the recommendations of the WHO are based on the available scientific, medical and public health evidence and comply with the criteria established in the conventions.
