Kyiv Wants Legal Slot Machines
The mayor of Kyiv, Leonid Chernovetsky said recently that he was
interested in looking into slot machines and gambling in their city.
Chernovetsky said that the city state administration was going to look
into bringing in legal slot machines for the revenue that they
produce.
Chernovetsky said at a roundtable discussion that they are bringing in
legal slot machines and legal gambling, and that they would be keeping
an eye out for the illegal slot machines that would be attempting to
infiltrate the city. Chernovetsky knows that the pattern of illegal
slot machines is there, and many do not know which are legal and which
are not, so they have to really crack down on the practice.
Chernovetsky also said that he knows that slot machines and gambling
have a negative history, and that they are a problem with national
morale. That is why they have decided to legalize the slot machines
and gambling so that they can keep a tighter rein on it.
The number of gambling institutions in Kyiv has already reached high
numbers, Chernovetsky said; and by legalizing it they are adding order
to the slot machine industry. They are also “systematizing” the
location of slot machines and gambling in the capital.
