Japanese, Mongolian Leaders Vow to Promote Ties
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and his Mongolian counterpart, Norov Altankhuyag, agreed on Friday to promote bilateral cooperation in political, security and economic fields.
The two leaders made the pledges in a joint statement issued after their meeting in Tokyo while adopting an action plan for the cooperation.
Under the plan, the cooperation will last through 2017.
The action plan called on Japan and Mongolia to open regular dialogue between senior foreign policy and defense officials and sought to hold policy talks involving the two nations plus the United States at an early date.
On the economic front, the action plan called on Japan to cooperate with development in Mongolia, as Abe pledged during his visit to Mongolia in March.
The action plan also said that Mongolia supports Japan’s effort to resolve the issue of Japanese abducted by North Korean agents decades ago.
Speaking to a joint press conference after the meeting, Abe said he wants to develop the strategic partnership between Japan and Mongolia to a higher level.
