Abstract
In 2013, the anti-tobacco policy in the Russian Federation was changed substantially as a result
of joining the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control. This paper analyzes the
effect of these anti-tobacco measures on cigarette consumption in the Russian Federation using
the RLMS-HSE data. The results suggest that the average number of cigarettes, smoked daily
by men, is estimated to decrease by approximately 1 cigarette as a result of the policy changes
of 2013. However, the changes were less successful in decreasing the tobacco consumption of
women
