According to a report by TASS on November 21st, Vyacheslav Volodin, the Chairman of the Russian State Duma, announced that a new bill is being prepared that will introduce criminal liability for selling e-cigarettes to minors. Additionally, fines for such illegal actions are also planned to be increased.
Wolokin pointed out that the existing regulatory measures are clearly not effective enough. Therefore, his colleagues have proposed holding individuals accountable for selling e-cigarettes to minors and also increasing the corresponding fines.
This is an important step in restoring order in the area. You and I need to continue working hard to address other issues related to protecting children's health. Of course, we must not allow the sale of alcohol, cigarettes, e-cigarettes, and many other prohibited products to minors.
