In connection with the International Conference on History and Tradition
of the Mongolian Statehood, the President of Mongolia N.Enkhbayar
extended his greetings to the participants of the conference and wished
them success. In his speech, the President said, "Eight hundred years
ago, Great Chinggis Khaan ensured the statehood status of nomadic
tribes thus creating a unified state of all Mongols, which expanded to
the Great Mongolian State covering the vast territory of Eurasia. This
historically significant event enhanced the statehood tradition of the
Mongolian nomads, which rooted from the Hunnu Empire and became a start
for strengthening the united Mongol nation. Adoption of Resolution by
the UN General Assembly 60th Session, inviting its agencies and other
organizations and member states to celebrate the historical anniversary
of the Great Mongolian State as expression of significant contribution
and achievement of the nomads to the world civilization, demonstrates
that this anniversary is not only a matter of joy and pride of us,
Mongols. Both senior and young generations of scholars representing
Russia, China, Germany, France, Turkey, India, the UK, Japan, Hungary
and Kazakhsatn--countries that are making a solid contribution to the
development of Mongol studies--will express own views on the Mongolian
statehood history and tradition and give a fresh breath to the several
hundred years long development of Mongol Studies. As the agenda
suggests, this international scientific conference grants the
participants an excellent opportunity to open a multidisciplinary
assessment of the Great Mongolian State s role in the development of
the world civilization and mankind history, as well as the statehood
tradition and culture of Mongolia. The Mongolian statehood history and
tradition is a large field of study with numerous delicate and
complicated issues lost and misinterpreted in the flow of time to be
studies deeper in the future. In August of this year, the 9th Assembly
of Mongolists will be convened under the aegis of the President of
Mongolia. A Presidential award is to be granted to best research works
on the history and culture of Mongolia, the number of Presidential
awards to young foreign scholars is to be increased and the Mongolian
Government is to start a project to award grants to foreign Mongolists
to do research and defend their works at scientific institutions
together with famous Mongolian scholars."
