Ukraine has already built one of the most user-friendly digital governments in the world. Our next task is to use this experience to launch a new generation of technology and innovation projects, attracting international expertise, partnerships, and investment.
In Washington I held a meeting with William Taylor, an American diplomat and expert who has worked with Ukraine for many years. In the past he was the U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine; today he is a board member of the East European Foundation.
William has a deep understanding of the Ukrainian context and continues to work on initiatives that support our country’s development. We talked about digital transformation, artificial intelligence, and innovation.
We also spoke separately about what Ukraine needs to stop Russia. One of the key factors is unity among the state, citizens, the military, and the private sector around a common goal.
In recent years we created Diia, launched Mriya, and dozens of other digital products that changed how people interact with the state. Today other countries study Ukraine’s digital transformation experience, and our solutions are becoming an example of how technology can transform a state even during a full-scale war.
For our team this is just the beginning of much larger international work. Dozens of new partnerships and projects lie ahead — all aimed at strengthening Ukraine.
