Uzbekistan's Senate has approved a new law establishing a ban on the circulation of certain tobacco and nicotine products, specifically targeting electronic cigarettes, liquids, and tobacco heating systems. The law aims to combat the growing illegal trade and use of these products, particularly among youth.
Amendments to the Criminal Code and Code of Administrative Liability introduce penalties for the illegal production, storage, sale, import, or export of these banned items. However, the legislation includes a provision allowing for potential exemption from liability for individuals who voluntarily report offenses and surrender the prohibited products. Senators stated the law prioritizes protecting citizens' health, the environment, and the nation's gene pool.
