Traffickers of illegal e-cigarette liquids could face up to seven years in prison if a proposal by the Russian Federation's Economic Policy Council becomes law, AIF reports.
Lawmakers are concerned about the ingredients in illegal e-cigarettes because they evade regulatory scrutiny.
Anatoly Vibony, deputy chairman of the Security and Anti-Corruption Commission, supported the regulation, saying the measure would help protect the health of young Russians.
Currently, there is no criminal liability for the illegal import of vaporizers and e-liquids in Russia.
