Greece opened its first-ever pharmaceutical cannabis production plant in the Greek town of Examilia near Corinth on January 26 this year.

According to AMNA, Greek Development and Investments Minister, Adonis Georgiadis, welcomed the inauguration of the cannabis production plant as “a historic day.”

He said that although cannabis has “a difficult history due to its nature as a narcotic,” the new production plant will greatly benefit Greek patients.
