Cigarette Smuggling in Europe: Who Really Benefits?
Research concludes "cigarette smuggling is not caused principally by 'market forces'. It is
mainly caused by fraud, by the illegal evasion of import duty. The cigarettes involved are not the
cheap brands from southern European countries, for which there is no international market. It is
the well-known international brands such as Marlboro and Winston."
