Minister of Digital Transformation
The Ukrainian government in 2020 launched Diia, a digital app that combines identity card, passport, license, vaccination record, registrations, insurance, health reimbursements and social benefits. Fedorov was praised by the World Economic Forum (WEF) for his work in establishing the Diia app.[2] Fedorov called for a crew of developers, designers, marketers and “security specialists” to join a volunteer “IT Army” — with 300,000 volunteers having been attracted. The online army's tasks include sharing the IP addresses of Russian websites and companies, in order for them to be targeted by DDoS (directed denial of service) attacks in an effort to knock them offline.[3]
Fedorov described Twitter as “part of our war effort.”[4] Fedorov described the digital battlefield as “our home turf,” while The New York Times also reported on how Fedorov “has turned technology, cryptocurrency and social media into modern weapons of war.” According to the Times, Fedorov stated: “They [the Russians] have failed to notice that… governments must move towards becoming more and more like tech companies, rather than being rigid like a tank, like a war machine.”[5]
On February 26, 2022 Minister of Digital Transformation and Zelensky Regime Deputy Prime Minister Mykhailo Fedorov asked Elon Musk to provide Starlink service to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.[6] Traditionally, the Ukrainian army was trained according to Russian/Soviet standards.
