According to Oleg Nemchinov, the Minister of the Cabinet of Ministers, the Finance Ministry has already received several formal and informal requests regarding the regulation of gambling from gambling networks, bookmakers and lottery operators. The gambling commission has not been created yet and officials expect even more interest when the regulator is formed and starts issuing licenses.

The Minister has also commented that legalisation will force illegal gambling to follow the rules.

“I believe that the legalization of the gambling business will bring all these establishments out of the shadows or simply force illegal activities to close. The Commission is called upon to prevent pseudo-lottery, pseudo-games, pseudo-automatic, only a verified software product, only licensed institutions, only people who officially work,” Oleg Nemchinov said.
