Brussel, 15 september 2025 \u2014 De offici\u00eble verklaring van de Europese Commissie dat "nieuwe nicotineproducten" gezondheidsrisico's met zich meebrengen die vergelijkbaar zijn met roken, markeert een nieuw niveau van desinformatie. Commissaris Varhelyi bevestigde dit in een schriftelijke verklaring. antwoord<\/a> op een vraag van parlementsleden. Door ideologie te kiezen en wetenschappelijk bewijs te negeren, misleidt de Commissie miljoenen rokers en ex-rokers.<\/p>\n

Michael Landl, directeur van de World Vapers' Alliance, zei:<\/p>\n

\u201cBrussel maakt desinformatie nu tot zijn offici\u00eble beleid. Vapen en andere alternatieven net zo gevaarlijk maken als roken zal er alleen maar voor zorgen dat mensen blijven roken. De Commissie laat rokers in de steek door krantenkoppen en ideologie boven feiten te stellen.\u201d

Over Europa<\/a>, Landen als Zweden, Tsjechi\u00eb en Griekenland hebben aangetoond dat het ondersteunen van schadebeperking helpt om het aantal rokers te verminderen. Zweden is bijna rookvrij omdat het minder schadelijke alternatieven heeft omarmd.<\/p>\n

Als "\u201cDe lucht klaren<\/a>\u201d"rapporten, veel wetenschappers en experts op het gebied van volksgezondheid hebben zich uitgesproken tegen de desinformatie van de Europese Commissie. Ambtenaren en volksgezondheidsinstanties in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, Frankrijk en Duitsland, samen met de Amerikaanse Food and Drug Administration en bijna alle grote wetenschappelijke beoordeling <\/a>Akkoord: het is de rook die schadelijk is, en noch dampproducten noch nicotinezakjes produceren rook.<\/p>\n

Daarom roept de World Vapers' Alliance de Commissie op om schadebeperking niet langer als een bedreiging te beschouwen, maar zich te richten op echte oplossingen die levens redden. Europa verdient beleid gebaseerd op bewijs, niet op angst.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
