Deputy Sultan Khamzaev has suggested gradually limiting the hours for alcohol sales on weekdays and weekends in Russia. He believes that reducing the availability of alcohol will help decrease its consumption. His proposal suggests initially limiting sales until 5 pm each day, and later reducing it to 2 pm.
This proposal follows the decision of Vologda Region Governor Georgy Filimonov to enforce restrictions on alcohol sales in the region starting from March 1, 2025. The presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov later commented that such restrictions fall under the jurisdiction of regional authorities.
