Deputy Minister of Digital Development of Russia Andrey Zarenin will partially act as Deputy Minister Maxim Parshin, who was detained on suspicion of taking a bribe. This was told to Vedomosti by a source in the profile association and confirmed by an interlocutor in an IT company. In particular, Zarenin will be responsible for the interaction of the ministry with large IT associations, one of them said. We are talking about APKIT, Russoft, ARPP Domestic Soft, etc.

According to a source in an IT company, the need to quickly find a replacement for Parshin is primarily due to the fact that the execution of his instructions was slowed down, as well as the signing of minutes of meetings of the Expert Council on Software at the Ministry of Digital Development, which is responsible for replenishing the register of Russian software.
