Dear Lela,

As mentioned in the technical consultation on the working document of the action plan to accelerate the implementation of the Global strategy to reduce the harmful use of alcohol (2010), please find attached the alcohol policy profile for your country. The country profile was created based on the responses to the Global survey on progress on SDG health target 3.5 (2019), in which your country participated and for which we received the submission accordingly. Please be advised that we will incorporate your responses to the policy questions in the report on progress with attainment of SDG health target 3.5.  

If no comments on the country profile are received within the next two weeks, until 13 April 2021, it will be assumed that there are no objections and that the data from the country profile can be published in the above-mentioned report. Please note that we are not asking for any updates on the responses provided in the 2019 survey. Thank you for your consideration.

Should you have any technical queries, please do not hesitate to contact Maria Neufeld neufeldm@who.int

Kind regards,

Olga Oleinik
