Ukraine’s gambling industry is proving irresistible to Russian-affiliated businesses. The latest case involves GGBet, a casino and bookmaker licensed nearly a year ago. Despite being officially owned by Ukrainian entrepreneur Maksym Krippa, the company’s links to Russia remain evident.

A Dnipro resident, Tetiana Snopko, is steadily building her media empire in Ukraine, having purchased two media holdings in the past year. Her ambitions suggest she’s far from finished expanding.

The Ukrainian gambling market is so tempting for representatives of Russia. This time we are talking about the casino and bookmaker GGBet, which received a license almost a year ago. De facto, the company belongs to a Ukrainian businessman Maksym Krippa, which does not prevent it from having very close ties with Russia.

There is a new growing media baron in Ukraine who almost unnoticeably to the wider public buys up mass media one after another. For the last year, Tetiana Snopko, a Dnipro citizen, has already purchased two media holdings and is obviously willing to buy more.
