Argentina’s government plans to revoke all permits for marijuana cultivation for medicinal use, Security Minister Patricia Bullrich announced in an interview on Thursday.
“Some believe it does no harm, but it has become a very dangerous drug. THC—the substance that changes your neurology—in Argentina is 18%, while the one legalized in Uruguay is accepted up to 2%. It is like a transgenic soybean,” Bullrich said. “We have had a very serious problem.”
As part of a broader policy shift, the government plans to “start from scratch” regarding marijuana cultivation permits. Bullrich said she has already formed a team, with the help of the Ministry of Health, to review all previously granted marijuana cultivation permits.
