China stands ready to work with Mongolia to develop exchanges and cooperation based on the principle of mutual trust and win-win cooperation, and to strive for a new vista of partnership between the two countries, President Xi Jinping said in a meeting with Mongolian President Khaltmaa Battulga.

Calling China and Mongolia close neighbors connected by common mountains and rivers, Xi said the sound development of bilateral ties is in the interests of the two peoples.

The Chinese president appreciated his Mongolian counterpart's attention to the China-Mongolia relationship, saying he is willing to work with Battulga to move forward the comprehensive strategic partnership.

Xi stressed the countries should bear in mind the direction of friendly cooperation from a strategic height and long-term perspective, as well as remember the mutual understanding and respect of each other's core interests and major concerns.

Xi called for maintaining the good momentum of high-level visits and communications as well as exchanges in diversified fields to enhance mutual political trust.

The countries should develop mutually-beneficial collaboration, use major project cooperation to guide and promote bilateral pragmatic cooperation, and step up the synergy of Mongolia's "development path" strategy with the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative.

Noting Mongolia is the first observer state of the SCO, Xi said China supports it elevating its status of cooperation with the organization.

China is ready to work with Mongolia and Russia to carry forward the guideline on construction of an economic corridor and push for progress of the trilateral cooperation, Xi added.

Battulga extended his gratitude to Xi for his personal care in promoting bilateral ties, saying developing friendly relations and pragmatic cooperation with China is the priority of Mongolia's diplomacy.

Mongolia adheres to the one-China policy, Battulga said, adding that his country will properly deal with Taiwan and Tibet-related affairs, which Mongolia considers China's domestic affairs.
