Ukrainian civilian wasn't bothered by Russian artillery – just wanted some weed

dailystar.co.uk:

grim news coming out of Ukraine was rare moment of fun today, when Sky TV's special correspondent Alex Crawford tried to interview civilians fleeing a Russian artillery barrage on Kyiv.As she walked past tank traps to speak to a group of refugees boarding a bus taking them to – relative – safety, she repeatedly stated that the civilians were “terrified”.But the sole English speaker she managed to speak to wasn’t all that scared.

In fact he was unusually laid back. As the determined war correspondent tried to get him to give viewers at home some sense of the growing horror in Ukraine, the chilled out interviewee responded: “Uh…we were running in circles,” before getting onto his favourite subject.“I am alright,” he cheerily announced, adding “I smoke weed.

Legalise. Four-20”.As Alex doggedly tried to get him to discuss the brutal Russian attacks on civilians, the clearly very relaxed Kyiv native continued: “Is cannabis legalised in Great Britain?”The fellow was evidently not going to let a little thing like an illegal war cramp his style.

And perhaps he was hoping to get some useful information about the legal status of cannabis in various European countries before he decided where he was going to apply for refugee status.Ukrainians are absolutely steadfast in their defiance of the massive Russian onslaught.
