Putin<\/span>‘s state<\/span> visit<\/span> to<\/span> Ulaanbaatar<\/span>.<\/span> As<\/span> experts<\/span> explained<\/span>,<\/span> the route<\/span> will complete<\/span> the restructuring<\/span> of Russian<\/span> logistics<\/span> in the<\/span> East<\/span>.<\/span> The<\/span> day<\/span> after<\/span> arriving<\/span> in<\/span> Ulaanbaatar<\/span>,<\/span> the president<\/span> went<\/span> to<\/span> Sukhbaatar<\/span> Square<\/span>,<\/span> where<\/span> Mongolian<\/span> leader<\/span> Ukhnagiin Khurelsukh was already<\/span> waiting<\/span> for<\/span> him<\/span>.<\/span> Putin<\/span> arrived<\/span> on<\/span> the Aurus<\/span> right<\/span> at<\/span> the square<\/span>.<\/span> After<\/span> Putin<\/span> got out<\/span> of<\/span> the car<\/span>,<\/span> a girl<\/span> in<\/span> a national<\/span> costume<\/span> with<\/span> flowers<\/span> ran<\/span> up to<\/span> him<\/span> and<\/span> handed<\/span> them<\/span> to the Russian<\/span> president<\/span>.<\/span> Putin<\/span> kissed<\/span> her<\/span> on the<\/span> cheek<\/span> in<\/span> response<\/span> and<\/span> said<\/span> something,<\/span> but<\/span> it is not known<\/span> what<\/span> exactly<\/span>.<\/span> The heads<\/span> of state listened<\/span> to the anthems<\/span> of the two<\/span> countries<\/span>,<\/span> welcomed<\/span> the guard of honor<\/span> and<\/span> the batyrs<\/span> \u2014<\/span> heavy<\/span> cavalry<\/span>.<\/span> After<\/span> the ceremony<\/span>, the leaders<\/span> went<\/span> to the<\/span> state<\/span> Palace<\/span>.<\/span> There<\/span>, Putin<\/span> left<\/span> an entry<\/span> in<\/span> the book<\/span> of honored<\/span> guests<\/span>,<\/span> and<\/span> then<\/span> held<\/span> Russian<\/span>–<\/span>Mongolian<\/span> talks<\/span> in<\/span> a narrow<\/span> format<\/span> and<\/span> with<\/span> the participation<\/span> of members<\/span> of delegations<\/span>.<\/span> After<\/span> bilateral<\/span> talks<\/span> at<\/span> the State<\/span> Palace<\/span>, the parties<\/span> signed<\/span> documents<\/span>.<\/span> After<\/span> that<\/span>, Vladimir<\/span> Putin<\/span> and<\/span> Ukhnagiin<\/span> Khurelsukh<\/span> made<\/span> statements<\/span> to<\/span> the media<\/span>.<\/span> In<\/span> his<\/span> speech<\/span>, the President<\/span> of Mongolia<\/span> stressed<\/span> that<\/span> Russia<\/span> and<\/span> Mongolia<\/span> are friendly<\/span> countries<\/span>,<\/span> since<\/span> they<\/span> are<\/span> “<\/span>eternal<\/span> neighbors<\/span>“<\/span>,<\/span> whose relations<\/span> have<\/span> been filled<\/span> with content<\/span> and<\/span> have reached<\/span> a strategic<\/span> partnership<\/span>.<\/span> He<\/span> also<\/span> pointed<\/span> out<\/span> that<\/span> the parties<\/span> agreed<\/span> to update<\/span> the implementation<\/span> of the projects<\/span> of the Russia<\/span>–<\/span>Mongolia<\/span>–<\/span>China<\/span> corridor<\/span>.<\/span> According<\/span> to him<\/span>,<\/span> this<\/span> will create<\/span> conditions<\/span> for<\/span> the activation<\/span> of economies<\/span>,<\/span> One<\/span> Belt<\/span> and<\/span> One<\/span> Road routes<\/span> and<\/span> the Mongolian<\/span> Steppe<\/span> Way<\/span> program<\/span>.<\/span> In<\/span> his<\/span> speech<\/span>, Vladimir<\/span> Putin<\/span> stressed<\/span> that<\/span> the<\/span> talks<\/span> discussed<\/span> issues<\/span> of cooperation<\/span> in<\/span> the political<\/span>,<\/span> economic<\/span> and<\/span> humanitarian<\/span> fields<\/span>.<\/span> According<\/span> to the President<\/span>,<\/span> relations<\/span> between the two<\/span> countries<\/span> are dynamically<\/span> developing<\/span> and<\/span> strengthening<\/span> in<\/span> accordance<\/span> with<\/span> the interstate<\/span> comprehensive<\/span> strategic<\/span> partnership<\/span> agreement<\/span> signed<\/span> five<\/span> years<\/span> ago<\/span>.<\/span> The<\/span> Russia<\/span>–<\/span>Mongolia<\/span>–<\/span>China<\/span> corridor<\/span>,<\/span> which<\/span> is<\/span> an integral<\/span> part<\/span> of the Chinese<\/span> One<\/span> Belt<\/span>,<\/span> One<\/span> Road<\/span> initiative<\/span>, is<\/span> the result<\/span> of<\/span> Putin<\/span>‘s work to<\/span> establish<\/span> logistics<\/span> with<\/span> the East<\/span>.<\/span> The route<\/span>,<\/span> among<\/span> other things,<\/span> is being developed<\/span> within<\/span> the framework<\/span> of the Russian<\/span>
