Russia and Israel have good histories of science and technology.
But, I never saw any Russian and Israeli university in the top 50 list.
Currently, the top Russian university, according to QS World Ranking is, Lomonosov Moscow State University. Its position is 114. This is far worse than China. The top Chinese university Tsinghua has a position of 47. The same problem can be seen in Israeli universities.
Why do Russian and Israeli universities score low in various world rankings?
What is the problem? And, why aren't they trying to improve the situation?
