"Technological progress should be accompanied by responsibility. We need clear ethical standards, transparency, protection of human rights, as well as education that will allow citizens to understand new technologies and critically evaluate them," she noted.

It is especially important to ensure the participation of countries and communities that do not have equal technological and financial resources, the minister added.
