The initiative to ban energy drinks is a concern for the health of the country, protection of the gene pool, refusal of 1.5 billion som in taxes for the sake of the future. But will it pass is the question. In 2025, 25.3 million liters of domestic energy drinks will be produced in Israel, and another 29.6 million will be imported. That is, it is an industry with factories, importers and jobs. And she has lobbyists. They cannot but exist. For example, the Association for the Development of the Agro-Industrial Complex. She previously sought to postpone the Ministry of Health's initiatives regarding an excise tax on sugary drinks and energy drinks. Lobbyists can also sit in parliament - for example, deputy Erolan Kokolov directly stated in 2023 that when discussing the ban (and the representatives already wanted to implement it more than once) there are "those who strive for the interests of energy traders". Therefore, now the ban will pass only if the political will of the president is stronger than lobbying interests.
