PRIME MINISTER RECEIVES U.S AMBASSADOR
Ulaanbaatar, /MONTSAME/ The Prime Minister S.Batbold received Tuesday Jonathan Addleton, the Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the USA, in the Government House.
Beginning the meeting, the Premier congratulated Mr Addleton on becoming the U.S Ambassador to Mongolia and wished him successes at works.
Mr Batbold said Mongolia attaches great importance to the high-level mutual visits that widen the bilateral relations. He mentioned that he met in June 2008 Mrs Hillary Clinton, the U.S Secretary of State when he was a Minister of Foreign Affairs, during an official visit to the USA to share views on Mongolia-U.S. relations and cooperation.
The Premier said projects of the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) have been realized successfully in Mongolia in accordance with the time planned. He thanked the U.S side for a decision to grant money for expanding the projects, and expressed a hope that this support will significantly contribute to Mongolia's efforts to reduce poverty and develop economy.
“The global financial and economic crisis is badly influencing Mongolia's economy. Mongolia appreciates its Third Neighborhood ties with the USA, and various support and assistance from the USA are contributing to recovering the budgetary losses and overcoming difficulties,” Mr Batbold stressed.
He underlined that Mongolia is paying a great attention to deepening the Mongolia-U.S cooperation in trade, economy and investment sectors, creating suitable environment for investments, and to establishing necessary deals.
The dignitaries shared views on the bilateral collaboration in defense and educational spheres and international and regional security.
In turn, the U.S Ambassador expressed his satisfaction with successful realizations of the MCC's projects. He said that inking of the “Oyu tolgoi” investment contract will bring to Mongolia many opportunities to develop the economy and to attract foreign investments. He expressed a gratitude to the Mongolian side for sending troops for the peacekeeping operations.
Mr Addleton appreciated the Premier's more attention to the education, and vowed to take a request in his attention to increase a number of Mongolian students studying in the USA.
