He made the remarks on Tuesday at the fifth conference on the top Iranian and Russian university chancellors and noted that bilateral scientific cooperation between the two countries is significant for the regional development of scientific products.
“In recent years, we have had good scientific and research relations between the two countries, and there is a large capacity to increase this cooperation,” he said.
He went on to say that during the outbreak of coronavirus, research activities decreased which caused a number of challenges for the development of applied and engineering sciences.
