No, actually they would have loved to make it easy. Yet the EU is opposed to it.

So now they are doing it in baby steps to get solid data on every step of the way to show the EU rules are bullshit.

First step: decriminalisation for limited amounts, home growing and private clubs.

Next step: licensed distribution in selective model regions, documented as per agreements with the EU commission.

After that: negotiations with similiarly minded EU countries

Full legalisation can basically only happen with an EU frame work and that will be a marathon...
