The use of cannabis for medical purposes is still illegal in the country, unlike heavier drugs from the opium group such as morphine and tramadol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">However, it seems that never before has there been greater support for legalizing medical cannabis in the country, the very fact that the president organized the aforementioned survey is proof of this. Both the deputies of the Verkhovna Rada, the Supreme Council of Ukraine, government ministers and even the patriarch of the country&#8217;s Orthodox Church, Epifanio, support the proposal made by Zelensky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img width=\"700\" height=\"394\" src=\"http:\/\/cannadaily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/281445-700x394.jpg\" alt=\"Battle to legalize medical cannabis in Ukraine\" class=\"wp-image-1540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cannadaily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/281445-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/cannadaily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/281445-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cannadaily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/281445-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cannadaily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/281445-16x9.jpg 16w, https:\/\/cannadaily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/281445-24x14.jpg 24w, https:\/\/cannadaily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/281445-36x20.jpg 36w, https:\/\/cannadaily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/281445-48x27.jpg 48w, https:\/\/cannadaily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/281445.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption>Battle to legalize medical cannabis in Ukraine<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Many other voices of public opinion in the country have expressed their support for the motion.

Who after suffering breast cancer and undergoing chemotherapy treatment, openly declared that medical cannabis had helped her alleviate the pain when it became unbearable.
