Patriarhia Română îndeamnă la discernământ și responsabilitate în privința proiectului de lege referitor la dezincriminarea drogurilor

A recent legislative proposal in Romania aims to decriminalize personal drug possession, converting it into a misdemeanor punishable by fines. Supported by several senators, the initiative has raised concerns from the Romanian Patriarchate, which emphasizes the need for prioritizing health and family welfare. The Church advocates for prevention and education, particularly for youth, and stresses the importance of compassion over stigma for those affected by addiction. It calls for a balanced approach that protects vulnerable individuals while addressing drug-related issues in society.
