Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko will now coordinate the activities of the state agency "PlayCity," which is responsible for gambling and lotteries, instead of serving as the head of the Ministry of Digital Transformation. This is stated in Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 613 of May 13, according to the Ukrainian News agency.
According to the resolution, PlayCity’s activities are now coordinated by the Cabinet of Ministers through the Prime Minister.
Previously, PlayCity’s activities were coordinated through the Minister of Digital Transformation.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, in May 2025, the Cabinet of Ministers established the state agency "PlayCity," which is responsible for gambling and lotteries, replacing the dissolved Commission for the Regulation of Gambling and Lotteries (CRGL). It was subordinate to the Ministry of Digital Transformation.
In January 2026, the Verkhovna Rada appointed the First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Transformation, Mykhailo Fedorov, to the post of Minister of Defense. Since then, Deputy Minister Oleksandr Borniakov has been temporarily acting as Minister of Digital Transformation.
