Lukashenko: countries and nations involved in race for technological superiority
The peculiarity of the current moment of historical development is that countries and nations of the planet are involved in a race for technological superiority – as noted by Head of State Aleksandr Lukashenko during the Open Microphone with the President event, featuring students of the Vitebsk Region universities and held at the Vitebsk State University named after P.M. Masherov
Starting the conversation, Aleksandr Lukashenko noted that today is a special day for this university and its students, not only because the President has arrived, “Firstly, at a meeting with university rectors in February this year, I asked them to plan my visits to universities both in the Belarusian capital and in the regions. Secondly, we have a topic for a serious conversation with you, the generation that will continue Belarus’ historical path in a world changing at an unprecedented pace.”
The President addressed the audience with a question, “You probably feel this pace? Today we look at yesterday’s innovations as at museum exhibits. It’s not just about science, technology and the real economy. This also applies to the social sphere, the relations between people. Anyway, the problem is not in the rapid pace. The problem is that countries and peoples are involved in a race for technological superiority. Nothing new.”
