I am pleased to declare\nstrategic partnership with the United States today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yesterday, President Trump and I had a frank discussion\nfor an extended time. One of the important matters that we discussed is how to\ncome up with practical solutions and means to improve bilateral economic\nrelations in numerical value based on the strategic partnership that we have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mongolia aspires to position the United States as an\nimportant trade partner and a major investor. There are opportunities of developing\nbilateral relations and cooperation in the spheres of economy, investment, banking\nand finance, and commerce. The two sides agree that bilateral economic\ncooperation is quite underdeveloped.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>President Battulga also noted his dissatisfaction with the fact that U.S. trade constituted only 1.7 percent of Mongolia\u2019s total foreign trade turnover in 2018 and discussed the ways to collaborate in the areas of economy, investment, banking and finance, and commerce.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Afterwards, President Battulga visited the Asian Division of the Library of Congress to familiarize with some sections of the book collection.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-04-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6026\" srcset=\"https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-04-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-04-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-04-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-04.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-12-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6027\" srcset=\"https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-12-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-12-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-12-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-12.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-06-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6028\" srcset=\"https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-06-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-06-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-06-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/president.mn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/viber_image_2019-08-02_09-45-06.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u0425.\u0411\u0430\u0442\u0442\u0443\u043b\u0433\u0430: \u0410\u041d\u0423 \u041c\u043e\u043d\u0433\u043e\u043b\u044b\u043d \u0445\u0443\u0432\u044c\u0434 \u0441\u0442\u0440\u0430\u0442\u0435\u0433\u0438\u0439\u043d \u0442\u04af\u043d\u0448\u043b\u044d\u043b\u0442\u044d\u0439 \u0442\u0430\u0432 \u0434\u0430\u0445\u044c \u0443\u043b\u0441 \u0431\u043e\u043b\u043b\u043e\u043e\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vfI03qxf2Nc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"date":"2019-08-02T12:34:09","excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President of Mongolia Khaltmaagiin Battulga, who is paying a visit to the United States, met members of the Senate and representatives of the administration in the Library of Congress on August 1.
