Prime Minister Kishida then stated that Japan and Mongolia, which share fundamental values, should work together also in the regional and international community.
In response, President Khurelsukh expressed his desire to further strengthen the bilateral relations under the new partnership.

In response, President Khurelsukh expressed his deep appreciation.
