Bryssel, 13. huhtikuuta 2026 \u2013 Seitsem\u00e4n kuluttajaj\u00e4rjest\u00f6\u00e4 eri puolilta Eurooppaa on allekirjoittanut avoin kirje<\/a> Euroopan komission puheenjohtajalle Ursula von der Leyenille ja terveyskomissaari Oliv\u00e9r V\u00e1rhelyille ja kehotti heit\u00e4 miettim\u00e4\u00e4n uudelleen tulevan tupakkatuotedirektiivin tarkistuksen suuntaa.<\/p>\n

Kirjeess\u00e4 kyseenalaistetaan suoraan aiemmin t\u00e4ss\u00e4 kuussa julkaistu komission tupakkatuotedirektiivin arviointiraportti. Siin\u00e4 komissiota kehotetaan soveltamaan riskiperusteista kehyst\u00e4, suojelemaan aikuisten p\u00e4\u00e4sy\u00e4 v\u00e4hemm\u00e4n haitallisiin vaihtoehtoihin ja ottamaan oppia mailta, kuten Ruotsi, T\u0161ekki ja Kreikka<\/a>, joka saavutti Euroopan nopeimpia tupakoinnin v\u00e4henemisi\u00e4 omaksumalla haittojen v\u00e4hent\u00e4misen rajoittamisen sijaan.<\/p>\n

Allekirjoittaneet edustavat h\u00f6yryttelij\u00f6it\u00e4, nikotiinipussien k\u00e4ytt\u00e4ji\u00e4 ja haittojen v\u00e4hent\u00e4misen puolestapuhujia Kroatiasta, Sloveniasta, T\u0161ekin tasavallasta, Kreikasta ja muualta.<\/p>\n

Maailman h\u00f6yryttelij\u00f6iden liiton (World Vapers' Alliance) johtaja Michael Landl sanoi: \u2019Komission arviointi osoitti t\u00e4ysin v\u00e4\u00e4r\u00e4\u00e4n suuntaan. Se luo pohjan uusille rajoituksille, uusille kielloille ja pienemmille valinnanmahdollisuuksille tupakoitsijoille, jotka haluavat lopettaa tupakoinnin. Kuluttajat kaikkialla Euroopassa seuraavat t\u00e4t\u00e4 prosessia tarkasti eiv\u00e4tk\u00e4 hyv\u00e4ksy tupakkatuotedirektiivin tarkistusta, joka vaikeuttaa savukkeille v\u00e4hemm\u00e4n haitallisten vaihtoehtojen saatavuutta. T\u00e4m\u00e4 raportti on loukkaus tiedett\u00e4 kohtaan ja miljoonien (entisten) tupakoitsijoiden petos kaikkialla Euroopassa.\u201c<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
