"India is a dynamically developing country. We may now be influenced by reports about the COVID-19 situation, this is true, but at the same time India has other sides that we know quite little about. This is a country that produces a lot. For example, most of the vaccines against COVID-19 are produced in India," the TSU press service quotes the TSU Vice-Rector for International Affairs Artyom Rykun.

As the Science & Technology Counsellor emphasized at the meeting, the Indian middle class accounts for about 350 million people. They are solvent educated people who want their children to be educated. And some of them are ready to educate their children in Russia, the university emphasizes.
