Tehran, IRNA – Cyber ​​security, artificial intelligence (AI), and human resources training were among the most important issues discussed during Iran’s Minister of Information and Communications Technology Sattar Hashemi's second day of visit to Cuba.

Hashemi said on Tuesday that the cruel sanctions imposed on Iran and Cuba by the United States had failed to prevent the two countries from making technological progress.

Referring to a training program for half a million people seeking to master in AI fields in Iran, Hashemi said AI and robotics will be important topics in Iran-Cuba relations.

He also announced Iran's readiness to train Cuban human resources in the field of robotics and AI.
