Bulgarian President Rumen Radev delivered a lecture on “Europe – the road to a digital future” at the University of Cyprus in Nicosia.

Addressing the students, President Radev said that education must throw a bridge between people and technologies that will help us derive knowledge and wisdom from information.  

“We live in an environment of unpredictability, controversy and competition and that is what determines the need to be connected, not just in the sphere of energy and transport, but digitally,” the Bulgarian head of state said. The president gave as an example Sofia as a city with a rapidly developing IT sector, which guarantees good prospects of development to a growing number of young people in this sphere. Earlier in the day Rumen Radev and the Rector of the University of Cyprus Prof. Constantinos Christofides discussed the promotion of academic exchange between Bulgaria and Cyprus.
