Ichinkhorloo Kh (USC Ctr of Diplomacy) on meaning of UNCCCD CoP17 in Ulaanbaatar: "Hosting offers diplomatic visibility, strengthens international reputation, and allows the host country to help shape global conversations."

Have to wonder why #Mongolia govt officials attend Davos WEF meeting. In tumultuous world, is it worth the expense it surely incurs?
As for "events" in Davos, what is PM Zandanshatar doing joining ill-fated "Board of Peace". Hopefully he has not committed to a "initiation fee".

In recollecting 2008 stand-off w/ Russia over demand to take control of gas station network, frm 🇲🇳 PM S Bayar recounts that he pointed to parliamentary authority in rejecting demand.
[Slightly odd that diabolically-grinning photo with frm Pres Enkhbayar illustrates photo.
I have written abt this episode as instance of #Mongolia active resistance against 🇷🇺 .

A strategic partnership Italy-#Mongolia?
https://montsame.mn/mn/read/384663
No offense to the good people active in this bilateral relationship, but I come across 🇲🇳 -🇮🇹 links v rarely and only in an academic context.
This seems like a version of 🇲🇳 govt happy to sign agreements with all actors, but it makes the bilateral links where there is an actual relationship seem a bit silly.

Wait! Maybe #Mongolia-#DPRK contacts have not faded as much as I thought...
North-South Korean espionage intrigue in Ulaanbaatar? Links to martial law in S Korea?
https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10538131
So murky-seeming, I would have to suspect that B Khurts was involved.

Seems to me that #Mongolia-#DPRK relations much less active in recent years/since Kim Jong-Un has ascended.
Yet, Chrm Kim sends Naadam greetings, noting the 104th anniversary of the people's revolution.https://montsame.mn/mn/read/374197

So, recall how V Putin went to visit #Mongolia last Sept and was not arrested despite outstanding ICC warrant? At the time, I argued that the Mongolian government didn't really have a choice. Before you think of new PM Zandanshatar recall that.
For TIME, I summarized Putin's visit as, "Turning up in September was Putin showing the rest of the world his middle finger". Pardon the image.
