“The question consists of two parts. The first part: there is no doubt that these sugary drinks are harmful. The second part: take it and prohibit it by law - I don’t quite agree with this,” said the deputy.

In his opinion, it is necessary to carry out educational work and take measures to limit the availability of these drinks for children.

Previously, the Commissioner for Children's Rights in the Republic of Tatarstan, founder of the National Parental Committee, Irina Volynets, proposed introducing a ban on the sale of highly carbonated non-alcoholic sugar-containing drinks to children under 18 years of age.
