The Ukrainian government is working to legalize medical marijuana. Part of the decision has been brought about due to the trauma caused by the war started by Russia, reports NPR. Last Tuesday, Minister of Healthcare Viktor Liashko stated on Facebook that the cabinet had just approved a law “on regulating the circulation of cannabis plants for medical, industrial purposes, scientific and scientific-technical activities to create the conditions for expanding the access of patients to the necessary treatment of cancer and post-traumatic stress disorder resulting from the war.”
