By Scott Rose - Feb 25, 2013 4:46 AM GMT-0500


Russian President Vladimir Putin today signed a package of anti-tobacco measures aimed at curbing demand in the world’s second-largest cigarette market, the Kremlin said in a statement.

Effective June 1, the law bans smoking in public ares including workplaces, stairwells of apartment buildings and near schools and hospitals. It also sets minimum prices for cigarettes and allows for higher excise taxes. The ban on public smoking will be extended to restaurants, hotels and train stations from June 1, 2014, and sales will be banned in street kiosks not big enough for clients to enter.
