press", adding that she was "particularly pleased to be present

citizens of Mongolia and Italy will have the opportunity to
develop better mutual understanding and stronger ties by

cooperation in order to share and showcase the rich history,
culture, heritage and achievements of the two countries within
their respective communities and to international audiences".

diplomatic relations, which formally began in 1970, together
with our historical ties form a solid basis for cooperation in
various fields. I am confident that the partnership between
MONTSAME and ANSA will not only strengthen the bond between our
countries, but also promote understanding and solidarity between
our peoples. Through the regular exchange of information and
resources, we aim to facilitate greater awareness and
appreciation of each other's cultures, traditions and values".
