(ANSA) – VENICE, MAY 10 – “Today we find ourselves faced with two epochal problems: artificial intelligence and, even more pressing, the presence in the world of a damned lethal and pernicious drug, Fentanyl. Pernicious and lethal, because a minimal dose is sufficient to kill a person or cause irreversible brain and physical damage, with a disproportion between the low production cost of the substance and the sales price: therefore with a profit that is extremely interesting for organized crime” . Thus the Minister of Justice, Carlo Nordio, in the closing press conference of the G7 on Justice in Venice. “The USA has had a series of deaths due to Fentanyl higher than those of the war in Vietnam: in one year over 60 thousand people died, in Canada there is the same problem and unfortunately, as expected, the drug is also spreading in Europe We have had the first example of an investigation and everything suggests that we will have many more ways to attack a nation: military, economic or financial, but there is also that of undermining public health, especially of young people.” , Nordio added.
