Alcohol consumption is very high in Moldova, says Lars M\u00f8ller, project manager at the World Health Organization. In an interview <\/a>with Adevarul newspaper, Mr. M\u00f8ller said men drink about 25 liters of pure alcohol per year, while women drink less.<\/p>\n

\u201cResidents of the European Union member states drink 10-11 liters of alcohol on average per year, while in Moldova the average consumption is about 18 liters yearly,\u201d the expert said.<\/p>\n

According to him, the new global statistics on alcohol consumption will be released in May. Moldova will rank second on alcohol consumption volume per capita.<\/p>\n

The data shows that over 50% of alcoholic beverages drunk in Moldova are home-made. The elderly prefer wine, while the teenagers drink mostly beer. The 2012 statistics revealed that 42% of teenagers drink beer.<\/p>\n

Lars M\u00f8ller explained that Moldova of today can be compared to Spain, Italy and France of 20-30 years ago in terms of quality of home-made wine.<\/p>\n

\u201cAuthorities in France and Spain have required the winemakers to produce a wine of high quality,\u201d he said. \u201cPrices have gone up, while consumers drink less wine and of a better quality.\u201d<\/p>\n
