President of Bolivia, Evo Morales holds up a coca leaf, puts it in his mouth and chews. "Am I a drug Addict? Are you going to arrest me?". During his address in Vienna, March 11 2009, he urged the CND to support the decriminalization of coca production and the removal of coca from the UN list of banned substances, because the raw ingredient for cocaine in itself is "not a drug" but a traditional medicine.
