I am sure that the joint efforts of the Government of Russia and universities, including MSHEU, will overcome all obstacles. And I would like to note that Konstantin Kosachev, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of MSHEU, makes a significant contribution to solving the global challenges facing our university,” said Igor Mikhalev, Rector of MSHEU.
