Slovenia, a new member of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND), submitted a draft resolution calling on the international community to step up efforts to prevent the use of illicit drugs in particular among children and youth.
The CND will debate the resolution at its 65th session in mid-March. The EU had backed the initiative for the resolution, and in its submission Slovenia has been joined by France, with Japan, Mexico and Nigeria to follow suit soon, the Health Ministry said.
