Cargo Trains Smuggle Cigarettes From Belarus Into The European Union
Since 2014 the pattern of illegal exports from Belarus to EU has moved towards larger consignments. Large quantities of detained tobacco found on cargo trains. On 6 November Jury Sia�ko became the Head of the State Customs Committee. Will he change the current situation with smuggling from Belarus to EU?
The decrease in individual border traffic and the growing share of Belarusians cigarettes in the EU shadow market are both reasons for concern. Financed by the EU and foreign tobacco producers, Belarusian State Customs Committee aims to reduce smuggling and increase revenue for the state.
