The governor of Sverdlovsk Oblast commented on tightening restrictions on alcohol sales.
During a live broadcast, the governor of Sverdlovsk Oblast, Denis Pasler, said that the region will not completely ban the sale of alcohol. Restrictions may only apply to holidays and school "last bell" ceremonies.
"Could restrictions be introduced for one, two, or three days related to children and family, to the last bells? It's certainly up for discussion. Will there be a complete ban — of course not. Businesses told me that 8:00 to 23:00 is excessive; let's make it 10:00 to 22:00 — that's a reasonable limit. But there is no talk of a ban and there cannot be. The country has already gone through this and it led to nothing good," Ura.Ru quotes Pasler as saying.
Earlier there were rumors that stricter restrictions on alcohol sales were being considered in the Middle Urals, but this was later denied by the Department of Information Policy.
