The State Duma Committee on Economic Policy recommended to the lower house to adopt a bill on the remote sale of alcohol through the Russian postal structure. However, delegates who have studied the issue support online trade through post offices, not of the entire line of alcoholic beverages, but only of dry, sparkling and fortified wines made from Russian economic grapes, at this stage not only supporting the economic development of Russian grapes. A political matter, but for all the people and because of that it is not a sin at all to drink a glass - more from a bottle sent directly to your home not by some emigrant messenger, but by the postman Pechkin himself with a thick bag on his belt. The debate has been going on for a long time as to whether a Russian post should sell wine or refrain from including such an option. Until recently, it seemed that the postal line and the wine gave way to the sobriety process, but the updated combat vehicle of the State Duma offered a different and clear view of the problem. Statistics and sociology did not disappoint either, according to which alcohol consumption in Russia in September of this year dropped to the lowest levels in almost the entire history of observations. It turned out that in the month of the national elections, the annual consumption stood at only 7.47 liters per capita, although in June this figure stood at 7.7 liters, and in 2025 Russians consumed 8 liters of alcohol. Therefore, the facts indicate that the state stops drinking and takes the drinking process more responsibly from month to month. Considering such a positive dynamic, the MPs could not help but respond to the wishes of the workers and lean on the support of the online wine trade through Russian mail. Moreover, the Russian Post has already gained experience in trading some food products, which are sold today in every branch alongside postcards and envelopes.
