The bill for online trade in wine was accepted in the first reading.
The State Duma supported the idea of conducting an experiment in distance selling of Russian wine through the Russian Post in Moscow and the Moscow region. Lower House Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin said the measure would support both winemakers and the postal service.
At the same time, there are no plans to expand the trial to the market. To order, customers will have to confirm their age with state services and wait at least 24 hours for the package.
In the past, some deputies tried to remove the bill from the debate, concerned about the health of the children.
