Uruguay becomes first country to legalize marijuana trade

Duration: 3:53
Updated: 11 Dec 2013

Uruguay became the first country to legalize the growing, sale and smoking of marijuana on Tuesday, a pioneering social experiment that will be closely watched by other nations debating drug liberalization. A government-sponsored bill approved by 16-13 votes in the Senate provides for regulation of the cultivation, distribution and consumption of marijuana and is aimed at wresting the business from criminals in the small South American nation. Backers of the law, some smoking joints, gathered near Congress holding green balloons, Jamaican flags in homage to Bob Marley and a sign saying: "Cultivating freedom, Uruguay grows." Cannabis consumers will be able to buy a maximum of 40 grams (1.4 ounces) each month from licensed pharmacies as long as they are Uruguayan residents over the age of 18 and registered on a government database that will monitor their monthly purchases. When the law is implemented in 120 days, Uruguayans will be able to grow six marijuana plants in their homes a year, or as much as 480 grams (about 17 ounces), and form smoking clubs of 15 to 45 members that can grow up to 99 plants per year. Registered drug users should be able to start buying marijuana over the counter from licensed pharmacies in April. "We begin a new experience in April. It involves a big cultural change that focuses on public health and the fight against drug trafficking," Uruguay's first lady, Senator Lucía Topolansky, told Reuters. Uruguay's attempt to quell drug trafficking is being followed closely in Latin America where the legalization of some narcotics is being increasingly seen by regional leaders as a possible way to end the violence spawned by the cocaine trade. Rich countries debating legalization of pot are also watching the bill, which philanthropist George Soros has supported as an "experiment" that could provide an alternative to the failed U.S.-led policies of the long "war on drugs." The bill gives authorities 120 days to set up a drug control board that will regulate cultivation standards, fix the price and monitor consumption. The use of marijuana is legal in Uruguay, a country of 3.3 million that is one of the most liberal in Latin America, but cultivation and sale of the drug are not. Other countries have decriminalized marijuana possession and the Netherlands allows its sale in coffee shops, but Uruguay will be the first nation to legalize the whole chain from growing the plant to buying and selling its leaves. Several countries such as Canada, the Netherlands and Israel have legal programs for growing medical cannabis but do not allow cultivation of marijuana for recreational use. Last year, the U.S. states of Colorado and Washington passed ballot initiatives that legalize and regulate the recreational use of marijuana. Uruguay's leftist president, Jose Mujica, defends his initiative as a bid to regulate and tax a market that already exists but is run by criminals. "We've given this market as a gift to the drug traffickers and that is more destructive socially than the drug itself, because it rots the whole of society," the 78-year-old former guerrilla fighter told Argentine news agency Telam. NOT ALL CONVINCED Uruguay is one of the safest Latin American countries with little of the drug violence or other violence seen in countries such as Colombia and Mexico. Yet one-third of Uruguay's prison inmates are serving time on charges related to narcotics trafficking that has turned Uruguay into a transit route for Paraguayan marijuana and Bolivian cocaine. Even though it is set to clear the Senate, the legislation faces fierce opposition from conservatives and Mujica has yet to convince a majority of Uruguayans that it is a good idea.

Hundreds of marijuana-enthusiasts celebrated on the streets of Montevideo on Tuesday after the country legalised the production, trade and use of the drug as the world's first. In a move to tackle drug cartels Uruguay's Senate passed a bill allowing over-18s to buy up to 40g (1.4oz) of marijuana a month, after the project passed in the lower house in July.

Uruguay set to blaze historic trail with move to make cannabis legal

The Uruguayan Senate is set to approve an historic bill on Tuesday which will for the first time... euronews, the most watched news channel in Europe Subscribe for your daily dose of international news, curated and explained:http://eurone.ws/10ZCK4a Euronews is available in 13 other languages: http://eurone.ws/17moBCU http://www.euronews.com/2013/12/10/uruguay-set-to-blaze-historic-trail-with-move-to-make-cannabis-legal The Uruguayan Senate is set to approve an historic bill on Tuesday which will for the first time legalise the entire production chain of cannabis from plant to pharmacy. Lawmakers turned away all requests for the pot plan to be amended after it was passed in the country's lower chamber. It has the backing of the president who believes it is a vital weapon to defeat the drug barons. "What we are supporting is a way of controlling this vice as an addiction. To attack it from the market side - in a way so that the marijuana trafficker does not bring it here because the State will sell it cheaper and with controls. Instead of fighting it from the police side fight it from the marketing side," explained Uruguay President Jose Mujica If it is passed the law will allow registered users to buy up to 40 grams a month from a limited number of pharmacies while a government-run institute will be set up to regulate the market, control prices and production levels. Veronica Alonso is an MP who is opposed to the bill. "We understand that this project in particular, if one analyses it carefully does not solve the problem of drug trafficking because if one seeks to find a definitive and true solution to the problem of drug trafficking then we should, or shortly we will be talking about the legalisation or regulation of cocaine which really is the most critical market," she said. Opposition has also come from psychiatrists who have predicted a rise in mental illness and pharmacists who say selling pot alongside prescription drugs hurts their profession. According to polls the public are also against it only about 30 percent back the bill.

Uruguay makes history by legalising entire marijuana market

Duration: 0:54
Updated: 11 Dec 2013

Uruguay makes history by legalising entire marijuana market For more Latest and Breaking News Headlines SUBSCRIBE to https://www.youtube.com/user/ZakWorldNEWS The passage of a landmark marijuana legalization measure Tuesday means Uruguay is set to become the first country in the world to have a system regulating legal production, sale and consumption of the drug. It's practically a done deal. President Jose Mujica has to sign the bill before it becomes a law. But he's long backed the measure, and there's little doubt that he remains behind it. Applause and cheers rang out in Uruguay's Senate on Tuesday after the high-profile vote at the end of a lengthy debate on the bill. The measure passed Uruguay's lower house in July. Supporters of the proposal have said it marks a turning point and could inspire other Latin American nations to take a similar approach. It places the South American country at the vanguard of liberal drug policies, surpassing even the Netherlands, where recreational drugs are illegal but a policy of tolerance is in place. "It is understood that a regulation-based policy has positive consequences for health and public security, given that, on the one hand, it can produce better results when it comes to education, prevention, information, treatment and rehabilitation in relation to the problematic uses of drugs," said Sen. Roberto Conde of Uruguay's Broad Front coalition, which supported the measure. "On the other hand, it helps fight drug trafficking, which fuels organized crime and criminal activities that affect the security of the population." Critics said legalizing marijuana could have dangerous consequences. "This bill, which proposes an experiment in social engineering, as it was described in the public health commission, does not comply with any of the ethical safeguards of experimentation with human beings," said Sen. Alfredo Solari of the Colorado Party. "Those safeguards are extremely important ... given that we're talking about marijuana, a substance that harms human beings." A letter sent by Mujica's government to lawmakers last year presented the bill. He told CNN en Español last year that he supported legalizing marijuana. "If we legalize it, we think that we will spoil the market (for drug traffickers) because we are going to sell it for cheaper than it is sold on the black market," he said. "And we are going to have people identified." Conservative critics of the measure have said it promotes drug addiction and have suggested that Mujica's comments were uninformed. Details still in the works The proposed law would allow individuals to grow up to six plants of marijuana and possess as many as 480 grams for personal use. Marijuana clubs of anywhere from 15 to 45 members would also be allowed and granted permission to grow up to 99 plants at a time. Users would have to register, and those claiming to use cannabis for medical reasons would have to show a doctor's prescription. Marijuana would also be sold at licensed pharmacies. Once the bill becomes law, there will be a 120-day period to give the government time to adopt regulations and implement it. Consumption of marijuana has been legal Uruguay, but its production and sale are not.

#NoFilter - Uruguay's President Mujica on Marijuana: Legalize It!

Duration: 4:50
Updated: 12 Dec 2013

The Uruguayan senate has passed a bill to legalize marijuana and president José Mujica has said he will sign the bill into law. Citing the failure of the war on drugs to curb drug use - as well as the violence and other social costs associated with the criminalization of marijuana - Mujica is taking this extraordinary step, which will make Uruguay the first country in the world where possession and use of cannabis is entirely legal. Meanwhile, as Ana Kasparian points out in her latest #NoFilter rant, conservatives like Bill O'Reilly continue to believe, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that marijuana itself is a serious danger to society, and must remain illegal. But that view is coming to represent a smaller and smaller minority, and the result will likely be more liberalized drug laws, both abroad and in the United States.

URUGUAY: FIRST COUNTRY TO LEGALISE MARIJUANA - BY BBC NEWS

Duration: 2:24
Updated: 13 Dec 2013

Today the Uruguayan Senate approved a marijuana legalization bill that was passed by the House of Representatives last July. After President José Mujica signs the bill, Uruguay will become the first country in the world to fully legalize cannabis. Under the bill, which Mujica championed, the government will grow marijuana and distribute it to pharmacies, where adults will be allowed to buy up to 40 grams (about 1.4 ounces) a month. The bill also allows home cultivation of up to six plants and nonprofit distribution by cannabis clubs similar to Spain's. Uruguay's drug control agency has until mid-April to write regulations for the new system. While Uruguay is smaller in population and land area than Colorado and Washington, the two U.S. states that have legalized the commercial cultivation and sale of cannabis, it is the first nation to officially allow marijuana distribution for recreational use. Although the Dutch government for decades has tolerated retail sales of marijuana at so-called coffee shops, the drug remains illegal in the Netherlands. "It's about time that we see a country bravely break with the failed prohibitionist model and try an innovative, more compassionate, and smarter approach," says Hannah Hetzer of the Drug Policy Alliance. "For 40 years, marijuana prohibition has been attempted, and it simply hasn't worked. But rather than closing their eyes to the problem of drug abuse and drug trafficking, Uruguay has chosen responsible regulation of an existing reality. Let's hope others soon follow suit."

Uruguay Makes History: Becomes First Country to Legalize Marijuana

Duration: 2:01
Updated: 12 Dec 2013

Just shy of four million inhabitants, Uruguay is a small but forward thinking country that has just done what no other country has yet to do: legalize the cultivation and sale of marijuana. Passing with a 16 to 13 vote yesterday in the Senate, the new law will establish the state-controlled organization "Institute for the Regulation and Control of Cannabis," which will keep a tight reign over the "planting, harvesting and sale of marijuana." The law will go into effect in 120 days. Pharmacies would be the go to location for purchasers of Mary Jane in the country. Buyers would need to assign their name to a state registry, which would allow them to purchase as much as 40 grams, or 1.4 ounces, of marijuana in one month. The cost would be $1 per gram. One household would be able to grow as many as six plants per year and special cooperatives, of 15 to 45 people, would be allowed to grow upwards of 99 plants. Each grower will not only be mandated to register with the government but also to use their imported seeds. The Uruguayan government plans on controlling the strength of the plants as well. The impetus for the bill was a spike in drug-related violence in the country. Surprisingly, roughly two-thirds of the population opposed passage of the law, according to polling numbers. For those Uruguayans who are worried about their country becoming a popular destination for 4:20 enthusiasts one of the particulars of the law should assuage any concerns. Only Uruguayan citizens over the age of 18 would be able to purchase marijuana in pharmacies. Many countries will have their eyes on Uruguay as they begin this unique experiment. Interestingly, alcohol can be consumed as much as one wants in most countries yet renders people much more dangerous to themselves and others than marijuana ever could. Go figure. source: http://nyti.ms/19DBas6 http://nbcnews.to/1jNJOf4

The 2013 legislative session was historic in scope and achievement, however, much of the work done for Coloradans was overshadowed by the gun safety debate. The Colorado Senate Majority moved forward policies on education, civil rights, jobs and the economy, and much more. This video is a snapshot of those victories.
