During a meeting of the Council of Science and Education, when talking with Mr. Mikhail Kovalchuk, head of the Kurchatov national research center, the Russian President revealed an interesting thing: he does not have a smartphone.
Earlier, Mr. Kovalchuk spoke about the rapid development of engineering and technology. According to him, processing a call on a smartphone, which many people have, requires the use of enough energy to boil a liter of water.
The fact that the Russian president does not use a mobile phone, press secretary Dmitry Peskov said back in 2014.
According to him, Putin prefers other forms of media and actively uses the Internet.
