Fedorov emphasized that this initiative not only makes the process of starting a family more accessible and convenient for Ukrainians but also marks a significant milestone globally, as Ukraine has become the first country to implement the entire marriage process via smartphone.

This innovative step has gained international recognition, making it onto the list of the world's top technological achievements according to TIME.
