In this episode of "Aclaremos las cosas" we talk with Clive Bates, one of the most influential voices in tobacco control policy. We discuss how the WHO Framework Convention has become overly bureaucratic, why it has turned into a crusade against the industry rather than a strategy to reduce harm, and the role of large philanthropic foundations in the global narrative on nicotine.We analyze Article 5.3, the exclusion of dissenting voices, the impact of bans on organized crime, and the missed opportunities for millions of people to switch from cigarettes to lower-risk products.Available in Spanish and in full English version to share with regulators, journalists, and harm reduction advocates around the world.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🔗 Para más noticias haz clic aquí.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🔗 Haz clic para entrar en acción.
