Question to UN prohibitionist; strange answer

In the last 20 years Holland received a lot of criticism from other countries regarding their cannabis drug policy. But the reality is that there's a relatively low level of cannabis use in Holland compared to countries with a stricter policy.

A few weeks ago, March 10 to be precise, the United Nations came together in Vienna, Austria to discuss the results of their War on Drugs. A few days later there was another meeting where Antonio-Maria Costa, Executive Director of the UN Office on Drugs and Crime, was asked a question by Frederick Polak from the ENCOD.

The question was simple: how does Mr. Costa explain the relatively low levels of cannabis use in Holland, given his claims that easy availability would lead to higher levels of use?

Well, here's his answer. Please do remember that these strange, narrow-minded people make the laws you have to live by!

Very interesting!! He totally avoided the question!

So how do we go about calling for Mr Costa's resignation on the basis of incompetence?
