Mayor of Palanga: the law that prohibits drinking wine in beach cafes has only served in supermarkets

“Like many mayors on the coast, we predicted that a ban on drinking a glass or a glass of wine at a beach cafe would make the situation out of control. People will take bags of alcoholic beverages from supermarkets to the beach. Then After a break of almost 10 years, the alcohol trade will re-emerge on the beaches. Alcohol, like in Soviet times, will shine in the water to cool down. Foreigners will not understand what is happening in one of the European countries. That was what happened.

We sincerely thank the Chairman of the Health Affairs Committee, Asta Kubilienė, for the “good” ideas that alcohol consumption on the beaches will decrease, but, as the Samogitians would say, ONTREP left.

In addition, around 100 youth jobs have been cut, and companies have been forced to think about circumventing a law that prohibits the sale of alcohol in ready-to-use cafes, even in the city center. Unfortunately, some of them had to close.

This law, which prohibits drinking a glass of wine or beer in beach cafes, has not served small businesses, but supermarkets, where bags of alcohol travel to the beaches, “wrote the mayor of Palanga, Šarūnas Vaitkus, on his Facebook.
