VOICED : Colombia endurece lucha policial contra consumo interno de droga

Colombian President Iván Duque announced a new internal offensive against drugs, allowing police to confiscate even small amounts of marijuana, despite its decriminalization since 1994. The decree aims to curb rising drug consumption by empowering police to destroy drugs found on the streets. Critics argue this approach does not address the root issue of narcotrafficking and may hinder the development of new drug policies. Despite decades of efforts, Colombia remains the world's largest cocaine producer.
