Prime Minister of Mongolia Uchral Nyam-Osor received Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Russian Federation to Mongolia Evsikov Alexey Nikolaevich.
At the outset of the meeting, Prime Minister N. Uchral expressed his sincere appreciation for the congratulatory messages conveyed by Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin and Chairman of the All-Russian political party United Russia Dmitry Medvedev on his appointment. He reaffirmed the commitment of the Government of Mongolia to further strengthening and expanding the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between Mongolia and the Russian Federation.
The parties discussed cooperation in the fuel and energy sectors. The relevant Standing Committees of Parliament have approved an additional protocol to the intergovernmental agreement on aviation fuel supply, which is expected to be signed in Moscow soon.
The Prime Minister noted that instability in the global energy market, linked to developments in the Middle East, has led to rising fuel prices, impacting Mongolia’s transport, mining, and agricultural sectors. In this context, he expressed interest in securing petroleum products, including diesel fuel, under preferential terms.
He also noted that the Government has initiated preparations to establish a national petroleum reserve with state budget funding.
Ambassador Yevsikov reaffirmed the importance of Mongolia–Russia relations and welcomed the Prime Minister’s continued engagement.
The parties also exchanged views on expanding cooperation in agriculture, tourism, education, culture, sports, and humanitarian sectors, marking the 105th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries.
