Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has met Chief of the Federal Agency on Youth Affairs Vasily Yekemenko on Wednesday. Putin expressed concern over incidents of emigration of graduates of higher educational establishments from Russia abroad and asked Yekemenko to pay serious attention to the problem.

"Regrettably, we cannot find out properly the quality of education of young people who are leaving abroad. Obviously, these are people who failed to realize their potential in Russia," Yekemenko said.

A data base has been created containing information about scientists and post-graduates who are staying abroad at present, but expressed readiness to return to Russia in order to work in their professions in Russia, Yekemenko told Putin.
