Sweden has the highest proportion of drug-related deaths in the European Union, with eighty-one cases per one million citizens – nearly four times higher than the EU average

    This is one of the things that I have followed carefully - having a few childhood friends who have gone through different rehabs and the way drug abuse is handled after the "Stricter Rules" logic was set in place is just insane.

    The issue is the combined fact that drug-liberalism has spiked here in the last decades sneaking stronger drugs down in the various age groups and a complete mess left out of the rehabsystem split in to a ton of different areas. So the country being formerly alcohol-only, the quick advancement of drug use, a complete mess of the rehab system and drug laws and politicing AND the "we need to get back the authoritarian voters and lean towards the middle!" by the Socialdemocrats have caused a disaster in moronic handling of drugs.

    So the current debate about this collapse fekking rocks. Finally damnit!

    EDIT: If anyone knows if Finland and Iceland have similar news source like SR in English please throw them my way. (My Finnish is limited to insults and stuff about not blocking radiators, my Icelandic is like trying to read with a headache and someone elses glasses (I should get better at Finnish and Icelandic btw))

    Yleisradio is the Finnish national broadcasting agency. News in English and in Swedish too, I suppose. https://yle.fi/uutiset/osasto/news/
