“Following the invasion of Ukraine, LeoVegas Group has decided to suspend all betting on Russian and Belarusian domestic sports. Athletes and teams from these countries have already been banned from participating in international events by many sports federations and, while LeoVegas Group has never accepted customers from Russia or Belarus, we do not wish to lend legitimacy to these leagues or competitions,” says LeoVegas statement.
“LeoVegas Group is following the situation closely and will continue to do everything in our power to help our colleagues and consultants in Ukraine. On Tuesday, LeoVegas Group donated 500,000 SEK (US$ 61,600) to the International Committee of the Red Cross - ICRC in support of their essential, lifesaving work in the region,” the company added.
“We encourage anyone that feels they want ‘to do something’ and has the means to do so, to make a donation,” concluded firm’s CEO message.
