    Russian Deputy Prime Minister: Russia plans to introduce a ban on plastics from the legislative level

    Russian Deputy Prime Minister Abramchenko announced that Russia plans to legally ban the use of colored plastics, plastic straws, plastic cutlery and disposable cotton swabs

    This revision mainly exempts the use of biodegradable plastic bags from restrictions, promotes the development of biodegradable plastic bags and introduces a mechanism for accountability.
    The bill has the support of 297 members of Congress

    On November 13, 2019, the Ukrainian Parliament passed Decree No.
    2051-1 by 365 votes on the 12th, banning the use of 50-micron plastic and oxidizable packaging in the retail and catering industries from January 1, 2022

    .
    It does not include ultra-light plastic packaging with a wall thickness of 15 microns and clinker packaging with a size of 225х345х45mm for the packaging of meat and fish and their products and the first layer of bulk products

    .

    The state will advocate for the free use of properly labelled biodegradable plastic bags and certain types of plastic bags for the transport of fresh meat and fish

    This biodegradability should comply with national standards that came into force in early 2019
