Kazakhstan's President warns of the threat of e-cigarettes to the country's youth and calls for urgent measures.

Recently, according to a report by "The Voice of the People," the President of Kazakhstan, Kasym Zhomart Tokayev, addressed the issue of young Kazakhs using e-cigarettes during a national conference.

Tokayev emphasizes that e-cigarettes have posed a threat to young people, and Kazakhstan needs to take urgent systemic measures to counter this dangerous phenomenon.

Another disaster posing a threat to the health of our country is the so-called e-cigarette and its various types.

He stated that these e-cigarettes have become popular among teenagers. This is mainly due to their wide availability and promotion as harmless.

We need to take urgent systemic measures to combat this dangerous phenomenon. A ban alone is not enough.
