What are Nitazines and where do people use it?
What about Europe?
Are Nitazines a product of drug prohibition?
What is a legal use of Nitazines?
Who is producing this substance?
Do people use it willingly or only as drug contamination?
What are the effects of Nitazines?
What has been the response of governments so far?
Is Naloxone effective against Nitazines?
Will the CND resolution against synthetic opioids effectively address this issue?
What is your message to member states here at the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs?
