Notwithstanding the fact that it has been 10 years since empirical confirmation that trade liberalisation may increase tobacco consumption, tobacco control policy with respect to trade liberalisation and related processes remains largely underdeveloped. The most commonly articulated policy, that tobacco be excluded from the scope of trade agreements, is problematic for a number of reasons and has not been widely implemented. In light of this fact and the potential role of the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, further research and policy development are needed in the area.
尽管自经验证明确认贸易自由化可能会增加烟草消费已有10年，但关于贸易自由化及相关进程的烟草控制政策在很大程度上仍未得到充分发展。最常阐述的政策，即将烟草排除在贸易协定范围之外，存在诸多问题且尚未得到广泛实施。鉴于这一事实以及《烟草控制框架公约》的潜在作用，该领域需要进一步开展研究和制定政策。
