Tightening 🇦🇲 Armenia

Soviet Armenia tightens its drug penalties again

A Presidium decree further amended the Armenian SSR criminal code's drug articles. The change came during the late-Soviet campaign against drug use and followed the 1975 amendment that had made possession without intent to sell a crime.[1]

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