Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has officially signed a bill to legalize medical marijuana—a step that he and other officials say can help soldiers address physical and mental wounds incurred during the nation’s war with Russia.
About one month after the legislation was “unblocked” from advancing to the president’s desk as an attempt to overturn the reform failed in the country’s parliament, Zelensky gave final approval to the bill on Wednesday.
The law will take effect within six months of being formally published, with the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and the Ministry of Health tasked with developing rules for the program during that time.
Ukraine could start importing marijuana products sooner, after cannabis is moved from strictly prohibited under List I to available for medical use with a prescription under List II of the country’s drug code.
Note: the law explicitly lists cancer and war-borne PTSD as conditions for which medical cannabis could be dispensed to patients.
Which includes their entire population.
convenient ;)
are we facetuning Zelensky now
Any photo of Zelenskyy in a suit, that’s his regular ol’ baby face from before Russia forced him to stare into the abyss of war. He didn’t blink, but his face today wears the scars of that trauma and stress
I guess that’s what Ukrainian chronic does to you
Meanwhile in Wisconsin, USA.

They don’t want weed in their water parks or cheese
Wisconsinites do. Elected Republicans don’t lmfao. For some reason (IMMIGRANTS WOKE ABORTION SINGLE ISSUE VOTING) the chuds keep voting them even if we’re the worst gerrymandered state in the nation. Also the worst for racial disparity between whites and blacks.
