Argentina repeals the law that spared personal use

Law 20,509 repealed the 1968 code reform under which possession was a crime only when it exceeded personal use. The rules of 1926 returned, and the following year the first specific drug law, framed as a matter of national security, set one to six years for possession, personal use included.[1]

Listed for context. No score change is recorded for Argentina here.
