Citējami Galvenie Vēstījumi

"Prohibition is the best support program for organized crime. You cannot fight cartels while funding them."

— On fighting crime

"People don't die from drugs – they die from illegality. Unknown dosages, contamination, lack of medical help."

— On the health argument

"Every euro for illegal drugs funds violence – somewhere in the world. Europe shares responsibility for the consequences of its consumption."

— On global responsibility

"Regulation is not promotion. We regulate cars, medications, and alcohol – not because we want to promote them, but because control protects better than prohibition."

— On the regulation approach

"Portugal has shown for over 20 years: Decriminalization doesn't lead to more use, but to fewer deaths, fewer HIV infections, and more people in treatment."

— On international examples
