YEREVAN, ARMENIA, Apr 26:
Countries that have invested in educating their populations, built strong consumer economies, and have democratic institutions that can deal with social change will benefit, Vice President M Hamid Ansari today noted.
He was delivering a lecture at the Yerevan State University, in the national capital of Armenia. Minister of Education and Science, Armenia, Mr Levon Mkrtchyan, the Vice-Rector of Yerevan State University, Mr Gegham Gevorgyan and other dignitaries were present on the occasion.
The Vice President said some of the newer technologies that impact on human progress related to energy, cyber technology, robotics, artificial intelligence, quantum mechanics, gene-editing and space exploration. ”All of these have geopolitical implications in the future,” he added.
Today, more than ever before, there was a general realisation in all societies that solutions had to be sought through science and technology. However, if the prospects were fascinating in some respects, it  was disturbing in others.
On the occasion, the Vice President was awarded with a degree of Honorary Doctor of the Yerevan State University in recognition of his outstanding public and political achievements and his contribution to development of India-Armenia relations. (UNI)
