At the end of 2013, Uruguay became the first country in the world to fully legalize marijuana. VICE correspondent Krishna Andavolu headed over to Uruguay to check out how the country is adjusting to a legally regulated marijuana market.

Along the way, he meets up with Uruguay’s president, José Mujica, to burn one down and talk about the president’s goal of a chicken in every pot, a car in every garage, and six cannabis plants per household.

    If you’re not allowed to smoke the marijuana YOU want and have to smoke the governments, then why did they go through to making it legal? For all i know, the government could do anything to it…



  3. Levi Lenoxx on May 15, 2022 at 5:35 pm

    I still think weed should have a control.



  4. Ryan StonedOnCanadianGaming on May 15, 2022 at 5:35 pm

    To think I watched this before weed was legal in Canada and me wanting weed legalized so badly.

  6. Mathieu S on May 15, 2022 at 5:36 pm

    So you didn’t smoke “with” the president, you just smoked “in front of the president”



  7. Abir Virus on May 15, 2022 at 5:38 pm

    President should claim lots of followers and love 🥺



  8. Raz Stuchiner on May 15, 2022 at 5:41 pm

    lol a peaceful anthropologist and researcher and senior citizen needs to somehow be locked up because of a faulty technicality. What kind of logic is that?



  9. Yari Perolini on May 15, 2022 at 5:41 pm

    Best president on earth.

    Of course A country whose flag has a smiling sun on it can’t be a boring place uh?



  13. Deserteagle on May 15, 2022 at 5:50 pm

    A true president. Huge love and respect from Romania. Here, our president and politicians are dogshit. You throw them to the trash.

    I’m truly happy for all the countries all over the world who legalize weed and started to understand how good this plant is for humanity/nephilim.

    God gave us the seed from the tree of life, to grow it, to understand it and to use it.

    Do you truly believe a bunch of bacteria politicans can stop the legalization of weed?

    If the gov wants war with the people and the citizens they shall receive war.

    Bow down gov and start legalizing weed ASAP.



  14. The Mad Carver on May 15, 2022 at 5:50 pm

    This is a fucking goal. Lmao.

    You’re disgusting



  16. Naruto Uzumaki on May 15, 2022 at 5:53 pm

    Along as it’s legal NOBODY is going to stop you and ask how much you have in your pocket.



  17. Etim on May 15, 2022 at 5:54 pm

  25. Rob on May 15, 2022 at 6:05 pm

    If I am given a chance to vote for a president to run the world, it would definitely be President "Pepe". God bless the guy.



  26. Seelixh on May 15, 2022 at 6:07 pm

    0:55 makes me so happy to see so many happy people… !



  27. M. R. Magewright on May 15, 2022 at 6:12 pm

    Dude: "I’m smoking weed with the president of Columbia"
    President of Uruguay: "See, that’s why I don’t smoke it…"

    Lol that really was funny and I’m glad they left it in the video… But I could never go to another country, sit down with their leaders, and forget what country I was in. I could be drunk, stoned, tripping on mushrooms, whatever; and I would not forget what country I was in, nor the president I was speaking to lol… No hate against the dude, I just thought it was a funny slip.



  28. X avier on May 15, 2022 at 6:14 pm

    The people that profit from private prisons, big pharma, obviously judges will not want you to legalize substances. They will be out of jobs. The police would have to arrest real criminals like kidnappers and rapists etc..

    It would be a superpower which will defeat the current so-called superpower which are based on atrocities and killing of innocent people and looting the money of the innocent. https://youtu.be/873iPxkyPK4



  32. Scott Autum on May 15, 2022 at 6:18 pm

    Weed is not addictive.



  33. Johnny McClurg on May 15, 2022 at 6:22 pm

    Marijuana should be illegal everywhere



  34. Sean McGuire on May 15, 2022 at 6:23 pm

    A dollar a gram?



  35. Max Zamberlin on May 15, 2022 at 6:24 pm

    that ending is possibly the dopest thing ive ever seen. smoking w the president of a country and having him hand u a cuban gifted by fidel castro. like bruh im never smoking that



  36. Michael Murphy on May 15, 2022 at 6:26 pm

    The definition of "grace" is chuckling at a reporter’s honest mistake of referring to you as President of *Colombia*, then offering you a premium cigar from Fidel Castro himself. This man is the epitome of "You good, bro."



  37. Jack Leach on May 15, 2022 at 6:26 pm

    Nobody told Jurgen klop smoked weed



  38. Abir Virus on May 15, 2022 at 6:27 pm

    Help Indians in legalization 🥺🇮🇳♥️



  39. Naruto Uzumaki on May 15, 2022 at 6:27 pm

    THE GREATEST PRESIDENT TO EVER WALK THIS PLANET. MY GOD HE DESERVES A NOBLE PIECE PRIZE. HE DRIVES A MODEST CAR AND LIVES IN A SHACK, A PRIME EXAMPLE OF HOW A PRESIDENT SHOULD LEAD HIS COUNTRY, LIVE UPON THEM AND OPEN YOUR DOORS (LITERALLY) TO EVERYONE NOT JUST SENATORS. BE APART OF THE COMMUNITY AND YOUR PEOPLE.
