Hongrie : 20 % des cigarettes vendues illégalement. Enquête (7 200+) : 12 % achats seulement via sources illégales/étrangères. Raisons : indisponibilité (24 %), prix (22 %). 9 % achats online (40 % dû au manque de NGP). Pour 82 % c'est normal d'acheter au marché noir.

#Hungary : #cigarettes 20% sold illegally. Survey (7,200+): 12% buy only from illegal/foreign sources. Why? unavailability (24%), high prices (22%). 9% buy online (40% cite unvailable NGP). 82% don’t see it as wrong. Most switch to cheaper brands, not quitting.#tobaccoblackmarket
