Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ On January 5, Ts.Bayarsaikhan, Chief of Staff of the President handed over the improvised version of regulation on General Staff of Mongolian Armed Forces to its headquarter.

“Phased implementation of the package of Law on Defense, initiated by President of Mongolia and Commander-in-Chief of Mongolian Armed Forces and adopted by Parliament in 2016, is underway in the defense sector. In frames of the mission, I hand over the newly improvised manuals of the General Staff of the Armed Forces which were approved by a presidential decree”, Bayarsaikhan said.

He continued, “The manual of the General Staff of the Armed Forces is a crucial document in managing operational coordination among government military organizations and ensuring an integrated and higher military authority”.

In accordance with the regulation, the General Staff shouldn’t only observe authority over Mongolian general purpose force, but also control border defense force, internal security force and other law enforcement organizations, he noted.

With adoption of the package of defense law, the functional scope and duties of the General Staff of Mongolian Armed Forces have become more specific and state military command is able to run an independent policy.
