athletes appear, that is, it is only a matter of time when they will begin to justify russia's aggression and use the symbols of terror, and it is also only a matter of time when the cream we would still to use the existing unspeakable flexibility of the international alpine committee what to say supposedly the world agrees to make concessions the aggressor cannot be generated that every day russia continues its terror today i signed a decree on the implementation of the decision of the rainbow regarding males against the legal identity of natural persons used by the aggressor state that to transport military equipment and soldiers by rail, we are talking about 185 companies and individuals, their assets in ukraine are blocked, the available property will be used for our defense, we will work to ensure that a similar blockade is applied by other countries. i thank everyone who helps

us to strengthen sanctions against russia, and by the way, i thank everyone. i think that how he exposes ways to be used by the state terrorists trying to circumvent sanctions or to everyone who eliminates the consequences of russian shelling and orients the wounded and of course, for each of our soldiers at the front who defend our positions and the destruction of the team , i especially want to note today the unit that defends itself the most effectively in donetsk, this is the 21st separate battalion of the 56th separate battalion. this is such a cold brigade . thank you for the stability of repelling russian assaults. soldiers of the 26th and 55th separate artillery brigades . every russian

shelling we will answer without fail ukraine about the legalization of medical cannabis in ukraine about the prospect of such legalization we are talking about more than 50 countries of the world have now legalized medical cannabis in their countries this is the data of the charity fund patients of ukraine, the bill on the legalization of which has not yet become a law in ukraine, why will we find out at what stage the original document was analyzed before the full-scale invasion, more than two million seriously ill patients needed drugs based on medical cannabis, not now because of the war, these the numbers have increased several times, according to preliminary estimates of the ministry of health, about four million people will need medical treatment, currently

pending consideration in the parliament for more than six months 74:57 draft law should be considered already in february. we hope that now. well, in fact, these topics are overripe and many deputies understand why medical canadians are needed, of course there will be those who are against it, populists, we understand that there will be opposition, but i really hope that the hall now , after passing this draft law, seriously ill patients will still unite. and people with p will now be able to receive the necessary treatment . an annual examination is a great opportunity to reduce pain, reduce anxiety

, reduce tension in the body, and even when a person does not notice this behind himself, we are often in such a nervous state that medical cannabis is one of those methods that help a person to recover and live a more or less full life. but while everyone is waiting for the decision of the parliament , a veteran of the us army came to ukraine to share his experience alim din he went through a difficult path of treatment and recovered thanks to medical cannabis behind his shoulders the wars in iraq afghanistan and syria in general he spent 12 years in the army after returning to civilian life ali could not decide for a long time life priorities, after being released from i went through many treatment programs that were supposed to help me, but they were not very effective . friends told me about medical cannabis . it was through their example that i saw that ptsd treatment can be effective, because there were those in my environment who decided to be treated with alcohol the medicine with medical cannabis helped

me to become more focused and understand who i can be in civilian life because after my return i was in pain, i was confused and did not understand what was happening around me, the project was supported by some of them and other public organizations in an open appeal to the people's deputies of ukraine, vadimkevich alen anisimov, serhiy sidykh, the marathon, the only news, we continue to talk about the advantages and possible risks in the legalization of medical cannabis, we will continue the discussion , just as the co-author of the bill, which is in the verkhovna rada, olga stefanyshina, this

mykhailo tsimbalyuk, member of the people's deputy, faction of the voice, representative of the verkhovna rada's committee on health of the nation on health insurance assistance, also joins our discussion people's deputy, homeland faction, first deputy chairman of the social policy committee for the protection of veterans' rights, colleagues. good evening. i welcome you on the air. marathon dobryi vecher is not a co-author of this bill , it is kaminiv's. yes, thank you for this clarification , it is extremely important. talk about the risks and advantages of this draft law, but first of all, i have a question for you, mrs. olya, if it is so important. what did you talk about in our material, why has it not been approved yet? well , first of all, i want to remind you of something, this is already the third ukraine's attempt to adopt a medical analysis as such, which would be legally used in ukraine, and last time , this initiative was exactly mine, i was

the first author of the bill, it failed in the parliament in the summer of 20 it seems like a year, unfortunately, and now here we already have the third attempt , uh, to pass it through the parliament, uh, why is it not possible? well, first of all, i think that many deputies do not fully understand the essence and are afraid. because they think that these are drugs , they are not drugs, they are medicines that are needed to a huge number of patients, which we have just heard about already, and now it is even more relevant because a huge number of people today in ukraine have psychological problems and actually here in order to relieve

tension in the body , as i said , there is no need to drink alcohol, medical cannabis. this is exactly the kind of thing that does not cause addiction . mykhailo, well, we understand ms. ola’s position that prior to the legalization of medical akanami, what was her position before the monomajority in july 2021 ? the cabinet of ministers also needs to be refined , speaking in principle. personally, i am in favor of hemp being used for medical purposes in our country as a medical remedy, definitely more than that. i want to clarify that the cabinet

ministers already in the early 90s adopted a resolution that allows it to be used as a medicine for seriously ill citizens of ukraine here . it is important that the medical industry still uses it, as far as the law is concerned, it is very important and the scientific and export administration indicates that there should be safeguards so that, first of all these drugs were used from the medical field and did not become a source . how can a law enforcement officer confirm for illegal use as a drug or as a drug? so that today the state law enforcement system guarantees that this does not become a shadow business and that in fact it is manufactured medicine

that will serve is difficult to say how to do it so that these fuses work i am here you know i will make a remark in our country, for example , antibiotics can also not be bought without a prescription , but they are sold and you and i know it, first of all i would like to ask my colleague not to mislead our viewers because no regulation allows the use of medicinal cannabis for medical purposes today. if it were you, i would first of all, i asked you to carefully read the documents, and secondly, just look at the reality, no patients and veterans would come out with a request to legalize it . the second point , of course, all the mechanisms of very strict control over e-e are prescribed in the draft law, you just need to read the document for this process, but i agree with my colleague that the draft law should be

finalized between the first and second readings by the way, our committee under the committee on european integration is already agreeing on the amendments that we will make between the first and second reading in order to correct the mistakes that the cabinet of ministers made before registering it, there are several very important points that we will correct but in general, today, this draft law already has half the hall and must be voted on, because we have to give real, not in some uh, ideas of some people's deputies, but real access to medicines for patients, these points that need to be justified. we let's talk more, but i would like mr. mykhailo to respond to your reply and, in particular, state your position regarding the fuses that you see them with. well, i want to say that i would also ask you not to scatter words about lies , because if you worked in the ministry, we

would see what this the reform that you initiated what does it lead to and name only people died from your attention, you are engaged in populism , please stop, well, have a conscience, colleagues . it seems to me that now we are going a little beyond the topic of the discussion, after all, i understand that this is very such an emotional topic, but let's still ask if the co-author of the previous draft law would learn how to convince the session hall, even single factions are the problem. the fact is that it did not get 226 votes. i think that this draft law, which has already been prepared by the cabinet of ministers, needs to be revised, if in fact it is in the committee after all, according to article 116 of the regulation, they will be able to adopt it , then there will be a discussion in the session hall. once again , presley, i support the position of many

public organizations, not those that lobbying and those who actually defend the interests of sick citizens that this draft law must be adopted not only for the first time, but the question of what needs to be done first of all, together with law enforcement officers, who will introduce safeguards, under what conditions should this hemp be grown, and who in which, how much does the medical industry need was explaining to the note that this is not the case. and who will be responsible if everything is done under the control of law enforcement agencies, if, for example , today poppy is grown with a narcotic composition of opium, then of course it can be done if the state will really guarantee it. so this bill has the right to life so that our

citizens of ukraine have a chance to improve their health or heal their spirits if they actually have a lady then it will be logical to say that you will work on of the second reading and about these fuses, which mr. mykhailo is talking about, that there should be control well, what of the above mentioned is in the draft law, ah well, first of all, regarding control , indeed, this industry should be controlled and we already prescribed it in my first draft law these cabinet fuses ministers, i took them into account, so i simply ask you to read the draft law to the effect that each plant will have a special qr code in order to be tracked in ukraine by such control over other

drugs in ukraine there is no, i.e. there is no prescribed control over cultivation, production, and actually prescribing. of course, these will be red prescriptions. it is prescribed in sufficient detail. plus, i am sure that at the level of by-laws, the ministry of health and the ministry of internal affairs also the by-laws will prescribe very strictly, i have no doubts about whether it is necessary to change in general, because i still represent the health committee of the nation, and my goal is to make these drugs more accessible to patients, so, first of all, just about the resolution that i, my colleague, should speak of should be changed, because today medical cannabis is on the list of prohibited substances. they should be transferred to the column where there are drugs of strict use, for example

, morphine, those that are, well, actually should be controlled because today they are prohibited this is the first amendment, which is important and must be adopted. the second amendment is the content of hydrocane ether in technical hemp, and we discussed this with the agricultural committee today . this law does not regulate the level . even the european union. and i, as a representative of the euro integration sub-committee, by the way, there is a special resolution of the european parliament, i strongly advise my colleagues to read it, which says that countries should allow you to have medical cannabis the countries to which we are going today, and here they are. today, they have this level, it is clearly established, it is 0.3 years ago, and we should follow our european colleagues. well, there are

a few more, well, such important amendments, we have already made them in our protocol, and i hope next, we will work already before the session, mr. mikhail, i see that you have a reply, we will answer briefly, it will be fair, because olya was also presented to us, and it will be fair in our material if we give you the word to finish. thank you for i just first of all, i want to wish that it is actually this one the draft law had a chance to be adopted, but the comments were very valuable. scientific expert administration regarding corruption risks. i have a question for olga. and you, as a specialist, tell me how much technical cannabis is needed to be grown in ukraine per year today in order to provide medical care to our patients. are you the author of the first draft law? how the former

deputy minister , the deputy minister calculated how much is needed for ukraine and for the ukrainians of this technical cannabis in a year. we will also talk about quantity and quality. i just want to remind mr. mykhailo that today we are still talking about medical cannabis and technical cannabis . these colleagues should also support this project, i wish you to find the optimal solution in these discussions, let it be in some other disputes , but find the optimal solution that will be

as useful as possible for our country and our of citizens olga stefanyshyn, people's deputy, faction of the voice, representative of the committee of the verkhovna rada of ukraine on the health of the nation, health care, health insurance mykhailo tsimbalyuk, people's deputy of the homeland faction, first deputy chairman of the committee on social policy and protection of veterans' rights and gradually, it was not for nothing that we spoke here mr. mykhailo tsimbalyuk was invited because this topic in one way or another affects the topic of war and the topic of veterans, and here i think that hilarion yaroshenko, head of the department, will agree with me of military information of the ukrainian military medical academy of poland good evening , i was not wrong when i said that this topic affects you and your patients in one way or another.

war and i want to remind you that the technical analysis has nothing to do with the medical one, there is no medical cannabis, although already from your answer i understand in principle, but let's make it clear, it is very necessary to do this . a lot of veterans, a lot of people, and in on this issue, there can’t be any kind of preconditions, it must be done so as not to remain like this, we are lagging behind in ukraine, we have passed the external examination from one of the as if we are moving to europe, well, with such legislation that exists in our country, we are not moving anywhere and this well, this is a lot, i have been doing it for 6 years i know this question from the inside. in russian, i know what the problem

is. now, how about me, it’s super relevant, it’s super relevant. we’re helping now. we’re working with military hospitals, and it’s very relevant. this needs to be done immediately, because some post-traumatic stress disorders lead to very, very negative consequences, and there are already 25 years of experience with this use in all countries of the world. and only positive challenges from this. from this plant, and we need to do it immediately, there are many, many people who can replace cannabis, in particular , opioids, which are used for pain relief in in very severe cases, medical cannabis datan er replace them well in certain cases and in which

specific cases this is when we talk about such long-term constant pain er but these are drugs that contain a very large amount of tetrahydrocannabinol and so they must be prescribed and under strict control, but the cannabis that is used for recreational purposes is 90%, it does not have such consequences and it is not technical hemp at all, because it does not require licensing, there is no licensing for technical cannabis. we are so that we lose contact, so we hear you, and here are the contraindications when we talk about medical cannabis, what are they, if they are , well, there is probably this, if it is medicine, then there must be contraindications, so they tell me that we are reestablishing contact

i will remind you that we are talking about the legalization of medical cannabis in ukraine or in ukraine why is it possible because the government bill is still under consideration by the verkhovna rada, in particular, we heard from representatives of the verkhovna rada from people's deputies that he needs to development and it will be refined and after that it will already be put to a vote from the summer, such a bill is in the verkhovna rada, so i am told that next we can talk about the main feature of medical cannabis, how it differs from the same technical cannabis, which has an effect on the body and i i hope that we are here, too , once i was able to hear against the contraindications, so let's talk about it further, yes, kostiantyn kosyachenko is joining us, doctor of pharmaceutical sciences

, professor p. kostiantynovych, is he recognized, do you hear us. good evening. glory to ukraine. please tell us about the specifics of medical cannabis and the specifics of its effect on the body. you know that there is a lot of talk about medical cannabis. sometimes even this is political speculation. in a certain way, i want to say that there are many different opinions and the medical component has not been fully researched. there aren’t that many clinical studies about e-e medical use against there is a lot of data, well, maybe superficial literary data, there are data about its use in post-traumatic syndromes and in which psychological

overloads in the military. such data exist. but i want to say that many scientists adhere to the opinion that, uh, this is not sufficiently studied. well, let's say how the same alcohol affects the body . many people know. that's why there are a number of questions, because very often canadian ones, i liked one study that they surveyed students and the students all said as one that they drive cars better under cannabis. although from the point of view of safety , you definitely can't get behind the wheel under the effect of cannabis, i.e. on the nervous system, definitely has a certain effect, so there are both positive qualities and risks, and i

, as a scientist, approach this issue from the point of view of the ratio of benefits and risks , in fact, today we can say that there are data on the benefits, legalization is possible it is needed in ukraine first and foremost. it seems to me that there should be legalization for scientific research, for information policy in this regard and everything else, because without legalization, we know that it is still used in one way or another by people ours all knew it, so before that they talked about the benefits. and you mentioned the risks. well, for balance, you tell us about the risks too, well, about what i said

, it has an effect. and everything else, but will it benefit her health? well, it is necessary to study thoroughly, and once again i am talking about the fact that the legislation must be adopted in order for us to study all this in the world. just like in ukraine, scientific research. well, it is not enough this is not enough such risks, but really sum up, are you for or against legalization ? this is exactly what i wanted to say. if they want one person , it will help. it needs to be implemented. it is necessary to make rules by which everyone will act and those who need it will not be punished or punished . who does not need it he should not have access to any medical or criminal cannabis we heard your opinion thank you for it kostyantyn kosyachenko doctor

of pharmaceutical sciences professor we talked with you i will remind you about the possibility of legalization cannabis, medical cannabis, i emphasize medical cannabis, in ukraine, such a bill is under consideration by the verkhovna rada , eh, what else did i want to say that the charitable fund patients of ukraine, 89 veteran patient rights protection public organizations , appealed to the verkhovna rada to have this bill adopted as soon as possible, we will of course, we will monitor with you how the situation will develop in the future, and in a few minutes, and maybe even sooner, we will talk about how the situation develops abroad , namely in the czech republic, where the presidential

elections and how the results of these presidential elections can directly affect you and me meet with a smile blush sweetly in a dream imprint your uniqueness understand the words of teachers forget erase yesterday find among the debris tomorrow laugh again in the morning catch again at dinner 17
