Question:

“Will the European Commission formally propose an updated EU tobacco taxation law that includes e-cigarettes and other vaping products on or before April 5, 2025?”

Resolution Criteria:

• YES: If, on or before April 5, 2025, the European Commission officially publishes a proposal for an updated EU tobacco taxation law that specifically incorporates e-cigarettes and vaping products—verified by an official Commission announcement or coverage in reputable European news outlets (such as Reuters or France 24).

• NO: If no such proposal is published by that date.

This question is based on recent news that multiple EU countries have urged for such an update and is both timely and objectively verifiable.
