According to a report from Trend on April 12th, the Uzbekistan Ministry of Health has proposed a draft law to ban the circulation of electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS), e-cigarettes, e-liquids, and heated tobacco products in the country.

 

Currently, the draft bill has been publicly released on the legal documents discussion portal website in Uzbekistan. At the same time, according to the bill, the Ministry of Health proposes that those who violate this ban will face a fine of $1000 or five years in prison.
