Prime Minister of the Republic of India

Sustaining democracy is sometimes more difficult than achieving it. Mongolia has done it.  As I said in the Great Hural in May, you are the new shining light of democracy in the world. You have not only nurtured democracy, you have also revived your spiritual heritage. And, now you are transforming your economy on the strength of your rich talent and vast resources. In a world of turmoil and violence, the path you have chosen commands admiration and respect around the world. Your imprint on history has been huge and enduring. I am confident that democratic Mongolia will also have a deep and lasting influence in advancing peace and prosperity in the century’s most dynamic region. In an unforgettable visit to Ulaanbaatar in May this year, I experienced the beauty of your land, the richness of your culture, and the grace of your people. I saw the clarity of your vision for Mongolia in our world. India will always honor the sacred duty of a spiritual neighbor and the responsibility as your third neighbor.
