MOSCOW, 19 June (BelTA - TV BRICS) - Mikhail Gordin, Rector of Bauman
Moscow State Technical University, stated that scientific and
technological cooperation between BRICS countries is of critical
importance. He spoke about this in an exclusive interview at the TV
BRICS studio in the Roscongress International Cooperation Area at St.
Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) 2025.
"The BRICS countries and their partners are states that can jointly develop new technologies. The most important thing for these countries is technological independence, technological sovereignty, which is valuable in itself," Gordin emphasised.
According to him, Russia's technological sovereignty is "the ability to survive on its own," and for BRICS partners, it is the ability to maintain independence by using solutions from different sources.
"This is a very good way to maintain sovereignty, to be able to take developments from more than one source," he noted.
Gordin also spoke about the experience of the Bauman Moscow State Technical University in this area. He noted that the university cooperates with a number of BRICS countries, in particular China, including participation in conferences and joint scientific developments. In addition, the university has established ties with countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), some of which are BRICS partners.
