Initiative to Optimize Expenditures
According to Fedorov, a similar DOGE structure will be launched for several projects. The main goal is to reduce budget expenditures and enhance the efficiency of government fund utilization. The minister emphasized the need to cut spending as soon as possible and has already begun searching for a leader for this new direction.
“I plan to launch a DOGE equivalent for several projects. We urgently need to cut expenditures and assess efficiency. I will be looking for someone to head this initiative.”
What is Known About DOGE in the USA
DOGE is a department in the USA created to reduce budget expenditures. At the beginning of Donald Trump’s presidential term, it was led by Elon Musk. This department aimed to enhance the efficiency of government spending and optimize funding for various state programs.
Previously, Donald Trump stated the need to reduce government spending, assigning the task to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which was then headed by Elon Musk. Later, Elon Musk announced a significant reduction in his involvement with DOGE starting in May.
