Germany's plan to legalize cannabis has received positive feedback from the European Union, according to Health Minister Karl Lauterbach, who announced that a bill for the legalization of cannabis would be introduced in the coming weeks.

Germany is moving forward with its plan to legalize cannabis for recreational use, aiming to become the first European country to regulate the sale of cannabis products.

But while supranational legal frameworks may pose obstacles to legalization, Lauterbach has received positive feedback from the EU, highlighting that the legislation must comply with EU regulations.

Perhaps @ChatGPT BOT can list the other countries of the EU and indicate whether or not cannabis is legal in those countries?

The legalization of cannabis in Germany is a highly welcome move by the EU, although it does present some obstacles in terms of supranational legal frameworks. However, if the legislation is able to adhere to EU regulations then it would set an important precedent for decriminalizing and regulating cannabis across Europe. While Germany may become the first European country to regulate the sale of cannabis products, other member states must also adopt similar strategies for establishing a harmonized approach to legal cannabism within the EU.
