Conclusions: a) the fine has significant preventive potential as a means of economic impact on drug trafficking and is subject to inclusion in the sanction of the criminal law provided for in p. 1 of Art. 228.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, as an optional additional punishment; b) restriction of freedom is characterized by extremely low demand in law enforcement practice, duplicates administrative supervision measures and does not have an independent preventive effect, which justifies the need to exclude it from the sanctions pp. 1-3 Art. 228.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation; c) deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities retains a high individual preventive potential and should be applied mainly when committing a drug crime using his official position, which requires a normative clarification of the conditions for his appointment.
