Russian Deputy Prime Minister Olga Golodets told reporters that only a third of the country’s population needs higher education, the remaining 65 percent do not need it. Her words on Friday, July 15, reports RIA Novosti.

“We have a calculated balance sheet, and this balance is approximately 65 to 35 percent (...) In the future, this proportion will change in the direction of increasing the proportion of professionals who do not require higher education because, for example, system administrator is today a profession that does not require higher education in the world.”
