The President of Guatemala has been criticised for his proposals to legalise drugs – after he argued that the only way for the use and transport of drugs to be properly regulated would be to make it legal.
Otto Perez Molina said he wanted to “bring the discussion to the table” at an upcoming meeting of Latin American leaders.
He is not the first Latin leader to urge a rethink on drug policy – three months ago his Colombian counterpart Juan Manuel Santos said countries should consider legalising marijuana “and more than just marijuana” to try and clamp down on the lucrative drug trade.
