The draft-law on marijuana cultivation has been suspended and I hope it will not be adopted in the future – Catholicos-Patriarch of All Georgia Ilia II has made this statement during the Sunday sermon in the Holy Trinity Cathedral today.

As he noted drugs, including marijuana, are fatal to humans.

“We should know that drugs, including marijuana, are fatal to humans. We should know that it is dangerous for our youth and future. We asked the government and parliament to withdraw the draft law. It has been suspended and I hope it will not be adopted in the future,” – the Patriarch said.
