EAEU countries stand for formation of healthy lifestyle of citizens

The Eurasian Economic Commission's Board considered a Report on applying international experience in the Eurasian Economic Union States in combating tobacco, alcohol and drug dependency. The document was prepared by the EEC jointly with the EAEU countries' authorized bodies as part of implementing the Strategy-2025.


The Report contains information on regulatory legal acts, national plans, strategies of the Member States regulating the fight against tobacco, alcohol and drug dependencies, as well as the main documents of the World Health Organization (WHO).

Implementing the national economic interests of the Union countries is largely determined by the resource potential, one component of which is a healthy population.

In this regard, intensifying the efforts of all interested parties aimed at combating tobacco, alcohol and drug dependencies will contribute to forming a healthy lifestyle in the EAEU.

The World No Tobacco Day is celebrated annually on May 31 and was established by the WHO in 1988 to combat smoking.
