Moves by some U.S. states to legalize marijuana are not in line with international drugs conventions, the U.N. anti-narcotics chief said on Wednesday, adding he would discuss the issue in Washington next week.

Residents of Oregon, Alaska, and the U.S. capital voted this month to allow the use of marijuana, boosting the legalization movement as cannabis usage is increasingly recognized by the American mainstream.

"I don't see how (the new laws) can be compatible with existing conventions," Yury Fedotov, executive director of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), told reporters.

The day we actually listen to the U.N. I'll make special note...
The U.N. also told us Saddam didn't have any means of producing large scale chemical weapons
They U.N. told us Saddam had no weapons of mass destruction

The U.N. we don't listen to them...

The Netherlands don't seem to be too beaten up by the UN over their pot laws.

When the Netherlands has nothing to fear from you then you're pretty much a non-issue
