"When we talk about resumption, it is not only an issue of money, but also an issue of specialists. Because we can build some kind of institute, university, but it is very important that there are people who are carriers of knowledge and specialists. Therefore, we are ready for such joint work and we will be very grateful if you help us develop new educational programs," he said.
Zelensky said that the plan for the restoration of Ukraine provides for programs for the restoration of various sectors of the economy and public life.
"We are forming partnerships with this or that institution, with this or that state. We even have patronage. We already have several examples. I know that the U.S. will choose for themselves a suitable region for the restoration of our country, Canada, the European states," the President said.
For the first time in history, the head of the Ukrainian state addressed the students and leaders of major universities under the auspices of the American Association of Universities.
