Italy to Ban Public Vaping and Tighten Regulations
On March 5th, Italy announced it will strengthen regulations on e-cigarettes. Smoking e-cigarettes will be banned in public spaces and penalties will be imposed for smoking around children and pregnant women.
According to a report by Blitz, fines will be issued by law enforcement officers. Additionally, regulations will aim to minimize electronic cigarette advertising and remove smoking areas at airports.
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has announced that he will help combat the illegal smuggling of e-cigarette products across the English Channel.
Italian Minister of Infrastructure and Transport Matteo Salvini expressed anger at this new law, stating that it was thanks to e-cigarettes that he was able to quit smoking traditional cigarettes.
