Ulaanbaatar/MONTSAME/ 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 on February 22.
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.
