MINSK, 27 September (BelTA) – Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko supported the initiative to open military studies departments at engineering-technical universities as he met with students at Belarusian State University of Informatics and Radioelectronics in Minsk on 27 September, BelTA learned.
One of the participants of the event recalled the president's statement that Belarus should not lag behind in training personnel for modern warfare and, in particular, specialists in drones and electronic warfare. In this connection, a proposal was made to open military studies departments at universities in order to train specialists that are in demand in such areas.
Aleksandr Lukashenko called this initiative reasonable and instructed the Defense Ministry to work on it together with university rectors. The president believes that students of a university such as, for example, BSUIR, can become the best drone operators because they specialize in the topic. “The Defense Minister shall work it out, consult with the rector and report back to me,” the head of state said.
