AMBASSADOR OF THE UNITED STATES PRESENTS HIS LETTER OF CREDENCE
The newly-appointed Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the United States to Mongolia, Mr. Michael Stanley Klecheski, presented his letter of credence to President of Mongolia Khaltmaagiin Battulga today.
In this regard, President Battulga received Ambassador Klecheski and expressed his confidence that the latter will continue the legacy his predecessors had of working consistently and actively during the 30 years of diplomatic relations.
For his part, Ambassador Klecheski remarked that being accredited to Mongolia was an honor, while expressing his commitment to further deepening the strong relations with Mongolia, which is considered to be an oasis of democracy.
President Battulga spoke about the letter he had written to President Donald Trump in which he had addressed the duty free treatment of Mongolian cashmere and other textile products exports to the U.S., which would facilitate increased bilateral trade and employment of women in Mongolia, and how these matters are being put into action today. President Battulga requested the Ambassador’s firm support on the Third Neighbor Trade Act Legislative Bill that was introduced to the Congress.
Moreover, Ambassador Klecheski thanked President Battulga for communicating his views on cooperation in renewable energy, as well as other spheres, and expressed his readiness to work actively on the matters that were discussed and particularly put his efforts into developing bilateral economic relations in which he sees great potential.
