Peskov commented on the issue of "the outflow of scientists from Russia in recent years."

“This is not always an outflow, it is more often migration.

Scientists are absolutely free people, and they work in those places where the most interesting projects are being implemented and where the most comfortable conditions are created, "RIA Novosti quotes him.

According to Peskov, in this regard, Russia is a participant in a "very competitive environment."

The Kremlin spokesman added that "while some leave to work in some other laboratories, other scientists, on the contrary, return to the Russian Federation."

Peskov stressed that this bilateral process is absolutely normal.

Earlier, the Kremlin reported on the US curbing cooperation in economics and science.
