The German parliament gave its final green light to the legalization of recreational cannabis on Friday. During a vote in the Bundestag, the text was adopted by 407 votes for and 226 votes against.
The regulations plan to authorize the purchase of cannabis in limited quantities through non-profit associations. It will also be possible to grow up to three plants for your own use. However, the possession and consumption of this drug will remain strictly prohibited for young people under the age of 18. With this new law, Germany has one of the most liberal laws in Europe, following in the footsteps of Malta and Luxembourg.
