The OP proposed to reduce the number of alcohol markets in Russia

On February 6, the Deputy Secretary of the Public Chamber of Russia (CC RF) made a proposal to reduce the number of shops selling alcoholic beverages Vladislav Grib.

"We need to think about regulation to limit the number of alcohol markets in municipal areas and populated areas," Grib said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

It is noted that often in small towns the shopping infrastructure is reduced to a pharmacy, several alcohol markets and a grocery store.
