President issues credentials to newly appointed ambassadors
On February 14, President Kh.Battulga received newly appointed Mongolian Ambassador to Poland B.Dorj and Mongolian Ambassador to the Kingdom of Sweden T.Janabazar.
The president asked both ambassadors to protect the rights of all Mongolian natives living in the countries they are appointed to, and advised them to direct their focus to strengthening bilateral cooperation with Mongolia. There are currently over 1,000 Mongolian natives living and working in Poland, and about 200 of them are either studying or working in medicine. The president asked B.Dorj to consider his direction with these medical professionals in mind, and focus on taking steps to improve MongoliaPolish bilateral cooperation in the medical field.
The President reminded T.Janabazar of his official visit to the Kingdom of Sweden last month, and asked the new ambassador to carry out what had been discussed between the president and Swedish officials, namely the establishment of the Mongolian Wealth Fund and cooperation in agriculture and winter sports.
He asked both ambassadors to always acknowledge that they also have the responsibility to serve the interests of the countries they are appointed to, and implement their agendas in line with the specialties of those countries. The president told them highlevel bilateral talks with Poland and Sweden resulted in a number of potential cooperation oppurtunities, but these projects all need specific technologies and industry know-how, especially in agriculture, livestock and energy sectors.

He began his career in the Mongolian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 1989, and previously served as a second secretary of the Mongolian Embassy in Warsaw.
