Politics
Ulaanbaatar/MONTSAME/. Premier of State Council of the
People’s Republic of China Li Keqiang paid a courtesy call on the President of
Mongolia Khaltmaagiin Battulga on February 27 and expressed gratitude to the
latter for visiting China and showing moral support under the current
circumstances that arose with the novel coronavirus outbreak.
The Premier said that China was providing accurate data in a timely and transparent manner to decelerate the spread of the novel coronavirus and expressed readiness to work with countries around the world towards bringing the situation under control.
It is believed that China’s traditional approach to curing the novel coronavirus, although no vaccine has yet been developed, has been proven effective, thus leading to the lowering of emergency levels in eight locations, including cities and provinces.
Premier Li Keqiang stressed the importance of maintaining
vigilance until full control has been gained over the outbreak despite the fact
that the provinces under lower levels of emergency directly shared borders with
Mongolia, while expressing readiness to work with the corresponding
institutions in Mongolia.
Furthermore, the Premier expressed his hope that bilateral
trade and mutual travel will be normalized in a short amount of time once the
existing challenge is overcome and expectations for the presidential visit to
advance bilateral ties to a new level.
For his part, President Battulga noted that his visit was a manifestation of the solidarity between our two countries and that a constant line of communications and close cooperation between neighboring countries make an efficient tool for overcoming a crisis. President Battulga also concluded that the meeting had consolidated the friendly relations between the governments and peoples of Mongolia and China.
At the end of the meeting, President Battulga expressed his
confidence in the success of the leading group, led by Premier Li Keqiang, on
the prevention and control of the novel coronavirus outbreak, and wished the
Chinese people well-being.
