PM L.Oyun-Erdene holds official meeting with Chinese Premier Li Keqiang www.montsame.mn
On February 5, Prime Minister of Mongolia L.Oyun-Erdene held an official meeting with Premier of the State Council of the People's Republic of China Li Keqiang. During the meeting, the sides exchanged views on accelerating bilateral relations in detail and reached agreements on a wide range of matters.
At the start of the meeting, Prime Minister L.Oyun-Erdene congratulated the Government of China and its people for successfully organizing the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics despite the difficult pandemic situation.
The two Premiers agreed that it is in both countries’ interest to accelerate the friendly relations and cooperation between the two countries, and urgently resolve current pressing issues.
In the framework of the ‘New Recovery Policy’ initiated by the Government of Mongolia, they came to an agreement on ensuring the active participation of private entities and investors in large-scale projects on border checkpoints and the sectors of energy and industry as well as those aimed at decentralizing Ulaanbaatar city and supporting green development.
A suggestion was also put forth for close cooperation to speed up the construction of infrastructure at border checkpoints.
During the meeting, the border crossing points for railroads at Gashuunsukhait - Gantsmod, Shiveekhuren - Sekhee, and Bichigt - Zuunkhatavch border checkpoints were finalized, resolving the issue concerning railroad infrastructure at Gashuunsukhait border checkpoint that had been under discussion for over 14 years.
The Government of Mongolia is focusing on the launch of railroad construction at the border checkpoints in the near future, informed the Mongolian Prime Minister.
Furthermore, the two PMs discussed extending the ‘Currency swap agreement between the Bank of Mongolia and the People’s Bank of China’ by three more years - until the socio-economic situation returns to pre-Covid levels in 2026.
As the Russia-China and EU-China trade turnover has hit an all-time high, the two sides exchanged views on accelerating the project on constructing a 987-km highway between Altanbulag and Zamiin-Uud that had been discussed for many years in the framework of accelerating the construction works to be carried out for the Mongolia-Russia-China Economic Corridor Program.
Within the efforts to reduce the traffic congestion of Ulaanbaatar city, they reached an agreement on cooperating in projects, such as introducing a new method of public transportation based on advanced technology, and constructing a highway network around the city.
Moreover, the two Premiers agreed to accelerate the works for the construction project on the natural gas pipeline connecting Russia and China through the territory of Mongolia as its feasibility study was recently finalized.
Highlighting the importance of deepening cooperation for the fight against climate change, they expressed willingness to actively cooperate in large-scale projects against desertification and dust storms, including the implementation of the ‘One Billion Trees’ national movement.
During the meeting, Premier of the State Council of the People's Republic of China Li Keqiang thanked Prime Minister of Mongolia L.Oyun-Erdene for his visit and in-person attendance of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony.
In order to have the issues put forth by the Mongolian PM urgently resolved, he then expressed that special attention will be paid to having the Zamiin-Uud - Erlian border checkpoint return to normal operations.
Furthermore, the Chinese Premier noted that the issue concerning the travel of the two countries’ peoples as well as Mongolian students attending in-person classes at Chinese universities will be resolved in phases, alongside increasing scholarship opportunities.
In the fight against the pandemic, he also expressed that it is possible for the Chinese side to continue to provide support by supplying COVID-19 vaccines.
The two countries’ Premiers agreed to have close cooperation in all possible fields in order to further develop the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership relations between the two countries and expand mutually-beneficial cooperation.
