Russia has offered to supply
between 250,000 to 300,000 tons of grain to Mongolia.
Russian presidential envoy for trade and economic cooperation with Mongolia, Alexei Gordeyev, told reporters Wednesday, "At present, we are trying to find the possibility to export grain on the optimal minimal prices, are studying these approaches and will try to help Mongolia to stabilize bread prices next year for a long period of time."
Gordeyev is scheduled to meet with Mongolian Prime Minister Sanjaa Bayar in Ulaanbaatur at the end of the week to discuss the issue.
Gordeyev noted that "Mongolia should resume partially its own grain production, as it was in the Soviet
times" for food supply security, according to Itar-Tass.
"We are interested in Mongolia to develop its agriculture, primarily the cattle breeding,"
Gordeyev said.
