自20年前发起烟草控制以来，全球烟草业发生了几次变化。这篇评论的目的是介绍过去二十年的一些关键变化。这一时期的特点是合并和收购，导致今天存在四个主要的跨国烟草公司：菲利普莫里斯国际公司、英美烟草公司、日本烟草公司和帝国烟草公司。并对中国烟草总公司在世界烟草市场上可能发挥的作用进行了探讨。此外，在过去十年中，烟草公司增加了对非卷烟形式尼古丁输送的投资。简要讨论了这些变化对烟草控制政策的影响。
Since the launch of Tobacco Control 20 years ago, there have been several changes in the tobacco industry worldwide. The goal of this commentary is to present some of the keys changes of the past two decades. This time is marked by mergers and acquisitions that led to the existence, today, of four major transnational tobacco companies: Philip Morris International, British American Tobacco, Japan Tobacco and Imperial Tobacco. The possible role of the China National Tobacco Corporation in the world tobacco market is also discussed. In addition, in the past decade there was an increase in tobacco companies' investment in non-cigarette forms of nicotine delivery. The impact of these changes for tobacco control policy is briefly discussed.
