Europa. Time for a new European approach on drug policy say people who use drugs 

Europa. Time for a new European approach on drug policy say people who use drugs 

EuroNPUD was shocked to see the outdated and off-policy statements of EU Home Affairs Commissioner Ylva Johansson and Annelies Verlinden Belgium's Minister for the Interior during a visit to Antwerp Docks blaming people who use drugs for acts of violence committed by organised crime, and committing the European Commission to achieving an ‘addiction-free’ society.  It is extremely unfortunate that EU Home Affairs Commissioner, Ylva Johanson is not only using such stigmatizing language but also promoting the failed and outdated vision of a drug-free world. (Statement from the European Network of People who Use Drugs – EuroNPUD, 14.02.2023)
