Is the EU policy approach to tobacco control working?

65% of EU smokers feel policymakers overlook their views on tobacco rules, with many Europeans supporting harm reduction over a tobacco ban. A Povaddo survey for Philip Morris Intl. highlights acceptance of smoke-free alternatives and calls for fair taxation to deter youth. The study reveals public desire for accurate info on less harmful products, endorsing harm reduction policies, and a balanced approach by the EU. Most believe eradicating smoking is impractical, emphasizing harm reduction policies. Illicit trade concerns are high, with majority opposed to bans and recognizing the security risks.
