Energy drinks continue to sell freely to young people in Kosovo.

There are only some of the energy drinks that can easily be found on the Kosovo market. Drinks like these continue to be in the hands of many youths, who often consume them unaware of their content and the consequences to their health. In many cases, the sale is done near schools, as well as failing to verify their age.

Even education connoisseurs raise concern that these drinks remain easy to access to and brands near schools that promote and expose these products.

Meanwhile, cardiologists also speak of the impact on young health.

In the face of this situation, consumer protection organisations require that institutions responsible take concrete measures in protecting minors.

The government has to be very transparent, accounting and with us to share responsibility, because we are the ones who are endangered and we are the ones who finance through the budget that we generate. These are two basic obligations. Consumer citizen in this regard, in this regard, to be informed, educated, educated, allowed to culture, achievement and growth, and to become conscious. There is no other formula, he said about RTK, Ceatin Kachanicik, chairman of the Consumers Association.

The Kosovo Assembly had only approved the draft law on preventing the use of energy drinks for persons under the age of 18. The purpose of the bill is to protect the health of under 18 people from the negative effects of energy beverages. The bill also envisions fine sanctions against the physical and legal persons they sell, offer or advertise energy beverages contrary to the provisions of this law.

RTK has also asked in the Market Inspectorate, but Sunday has received no answers.
