MOSCOW, December 7. /TASS/: No one can stop or slow down the development of Russia, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the VTB Investment Forum "Russia Calling!"

"I have no doubt that no one can stop us or slow down our development," he said.

According to Putin, Russia should create educational, scientific and investment platforms within the BRICS framework, collaborating primarily in the field of education. "We should not think about these restrictions, we must look forward, and go forward, and act on a broad front, first of all, in the field of education, which becomes an essential factor in economic growth itself. We must do this with those who want it work in a modern and civilized manner," he said.

Putin added that Russia will continue, among other things, cooperation in this area with China, with which it has developed "very good, trusting relations."
