Tobacco packing in Russia offered to do the same-impersonal. Such a proposal to the Ministry of health was made by the Director of the University's drug free nation Oleg Zykov. He refers to the experience of Australia, offering to unify all tobacco packaging.

When this initiative finds support in government circles, the labelling of cigarette packs will be made with the introduction of a single font, company logos will be banned, the packaging will be a 1 (as it has been nicknamed, "fecal") color.

At the same time, "fecal" package is not provided to the Russian anti-tobacco law and contradicts not so long ago adopted technical regulations of the Eurasian economic Union (EEU) on tobacco products. To make this proposal a reality will require significant changes in the domestic legislation. However those who wish to take part in it, perhaps there is - on anti-Smoking slogans currently you can not only excellent for advertising purposes, but also make a lot of money.

For example, not so long ago at the 16th world conference on Smoking or health" in Abu Dhabi (UAE) organization CONFOP has been awarded directly from the hands of American billionaire Michael Bloomberg for being active in tobacco control in the Russian Federation, and good luck "to facilitate the adoption of legislation to reduce the consumption of cigarettes." Ibid Bloomberg together with other American billionaire bill gates announced the creation of the Fund to $ 4 million, which will support the promotion of anti-Smoking legislation in developing countries, even in Russia.

As reported by a working Director of the Movement for the rights of smokers Andrey Loskutov, six months ago, antitobacco were accused that they work to change national legislation is funded by the result of the turn. Then, these statements have been condemned and rejected by anti-tobacco activists.

"But the real situation is the following: prize, awarded in Abu Dhabi Dmitry Yanin, confirms what was previously a guess. Active anti-Smoking organizations to change domestic legislation fully falls under the wording on NGOs - foreign agents. The government should monitor such organizations. In this embodiment, this is not happening," he proclaimed social activist. It is worth Recalling that at the beginning of may 2014 managing CONFOP Dmitry Yanin was awarded in Washington monetary award named Judy Wilkenfeld with the support of Pfizer, developing antismoking substance.

National Movement for the rights of smokers assesses the financing of U.S. companies increase the penalties against domestic smokers as an attempt to interfere with the process of harmonization of the Russian legislation. This state of Affairs, according to a public organization, working as a barrier in achieving social harmony smokers and non-residents of the Russian Federation as a contributing factor to the aggravation of social relationships.

"I'm here it's hard to believe in the sincerity of the Americans: one hand they impose penalties against Putin, against the Russian economy, and at other times under the guise of support for a healthy lifestyle - punishment against Smoking population of Russia. I'm of the opinion that whatever sanctions does not happen. And it is sad that these subversive cash Americans are the Russian Federation, the Russian company. To accept such gifts, at least, short-sighted," expressed his opinion co-Chairman of the Movement for the rights of smokers, ex-speaker of the state Duma Gennady Seleznev.
