“We legalize gambling, namely, casino work in five-star hotels,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

The President added that the legalization of the gambling business will stimulate the development of the tourism cluster.

According to the agency, gambling is prohibited by law in Ukraine since 2009.

In June Zelensky criticized the norms in Ukraine, calling, in particular, to legalize the gambling business and to abolish the moratorium on land sales.

Then he said that the country "needs to get rid of the mothballs of post-Soviet regulation."
