Chairman of the Commission on Regulation of Gambling and Lotteries of Ukraine (CRAIL) Ivan Rudy revealed the next nuances of gambling legalization business in the country. The functionary also described the target audience of the gambling industry and the benefits of reforming this industry for Ukrainians.

Thus, according to the expert, the gambling business market will allow Ukraine to reach a qualitatively new level. Ivan Rudy argues that gambling is, first of all, "tourist bait".

“This industry is focused on wealthy people who spend their money in a certain way. I want to assure you that casinos are not being built so that an ordinary Ukrainian sends his salary to gambling entertainment. On the contrary, each gambling establishment in a luxury hotel, which is located away from schools and other educational institutions, creates about 150 jobs,” said the chairman of CRAIL.

The functionary further said that the closure of the business at the legislative level forced a large number of Ukrainians to go abroad to work. According to him, millions of people left for Georgia, Cyprus, Africa, Europe, where they still work and benefit these states.

“Now people have the opportunity to return, direct taxes from their wages payments not to the English lord, but to our budget. If we are talking about slot machine halls, then they will be located at least 500 meters from a school, kindergarten or music academy. That is, there is no need to worry about the fact that children will pass by and look at all this bacchanalia that you might imagine,” added Rudy.

The head of the gambling regulator once again pointed out that all operators interested in obtaining a Ukrainian license subscribe to all the rules of the law and undertake to comply with the established requirements. This will allow gambling activities to be carried out as honestly, transparently and in compliance with all norms in ensuring the rights of Ukrainian citizens, Ivan Rudy is sure. on the positive aspects of the legalization of the gambling business in Ukraine.
