Though EU smoking rules approved

Anti-smoking legislation is to be introduced across the European Union in an attempt to cut the number of smokers by 2.4 million.

Five words I didn't know:

flavoured: gust
aimed: dirigit
additives : additiu
tracking: seguiment o rastreig
endorse: endossar

Summary:
European Comission has voted a new law to forbid the market of flavoured cigarettes. There are a lot of rules for tobacco packages, some of them aimed to female population, another rule for roll-your-own tobacco packs are ban to say they hasn't additives or less harmful.
Ministers expect to endorse the new rules in March. They're tracking cigarettes to combat illegal market. There are many different opinions, in favor and against this new rules.

Personal opinion: 

Well.. It's funny because I am smoker and I disagree with this new law, because I believe that all of us have the freedom to chose what we want to ourselves. Of course, it has a good side because it will improve the health of many people and many teenagers won't start to smoke too soon, but, despite it won't be a good change for adult people who smoke only flavour cigarettes.
I think that sometimes it would be a better choice ask to population and see what they want.
