Ulaanbaatar, /MONTSAME/ Prime Minister S.Bayar hosted a meeting Tuesday with a visiting Chief of Luxembourg Army's Headquarters, General Gaston Reinig. Mr Bayar expressed his hope that this visit will play an important role in extending the bilateral relations and cooperation in defense sector enriching them with a new content. He expressed his satisfaction with active promotion of the cooperation in comparatively short term since the establishment of military relationship between the two countries in 2002. "A military contingent of Mongolia's Armed Forces performed a peacekeeping mission in Kosovo together with troops from Luxembourg under the NATO leadership. This is a significant measure for the military relations and cooperation between Mongolia and Luxembourg," he added. "I would like to announce that Mongolia's Government and the National Security Council supported Luxembourg's proposal on joint participation in stabilizing Afghanistan. The suggestion was made during my visit to Luxembourg," Mr Bayar said. Mongolia is interested in cooperating with Luxembourg' Army in renovating and re-organizing a Tavantolgoi-based peacekeeping training center of Mongolia's Armed Forces into Regional Training Center, exchanging international peacekeeping operation experiences, conducting joint military exercises, and in establishing relations between military units of the two countries.
