Tightening 🇬🇷 Greece

Greece forbids growing cannabis

Greece, until then one of the two main suppliers of hashish to Egypt and North Africa, forbade cannabis cultivation. Greek hashish became rarer but did not disappear, and traffickers moved production to Bulgaria, Romania, Yugoslavia and Albania.[1]

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