". Mr President, as I have one minute to speak, I would simply like to draw your attention to the conclusions of the report by the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction. It is regrettable that these conclusions have not been implemented. The values espoused by individuals and their behaviour are influenced by what the people in question view as the norm in their social environments. The second conclusion was that a monitoring policy has more influence on social norms than media campaigns and an educational approach. If young people in particular view experimenting with drugs as normal and socially acceptable, this is a key factor influencing their values and their behaviour concerning drug consumption. It is regrettable that such conclusions came at the cost of millions of drug addicts and the deaths of thousands of young people as a result of fatal, experimental liberalisation policies which divided drugs into soft drugs, which were supposedly harmless, and hard drugs. This policy continues to this day. Speaking of soft drugs as being safe is a very dangerous form of manipulation which facilitates dependency on drugs and the spread of drug addiction."@en1
