The Russian Foreign Ministry responded to the words of Kai Kallas about Moscow's technological lag

The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, humorously commented on the opinion of the head of the EU diplomatic service, Kai Kallas, that Russians are not strong in technology, succeeding in social sciences. TASS informs about this today, September 7.

The Russian diplomat reminded her colleague from the EU — who built the Crimean Bridge, who created the "Hazel Tree" and who launches rockets from the Vostochny cosmodrome.

Earlier, Callas noted that "the Chinese have outstanding skills in the field of technology, but their achievements in social sciences are inferior to the Russians, who, in turn, are not so strong in technology, but excel in social sciences."

"If Russia is "not so strong in technology," who built the Crimean Bridge? Who launches rockets from the Vostochny cosmodrome? Who created the "Hazel Tree"? And so on and so forth. As well as not being strong in social sciences, China would not be able to manage a billion citizens. Critically illiterate Callas," Zakharova wrote on social networks.

Maria Zakharova concluded the post with the following remark: "Apparently, Callas took criticism for her previous pearls and, as bequeathed by [former German Foreign Minister Annalena] Berbok, turned 360 [degrees]."
