Wang says the two countries’ bilateral relationship is now back on track as Mongolian FM reaffirms its respect of the “One China” policy, following the Dalai Lama’s visit in Ulaanbaatar in November.

Wang confirms China’s extension of its 15 billion yuan ($2 billion) swap line with the Bank of Mongolia, as part of a three-year $5.5 billion bailout plan announced by IMF on Feb 19, in helping Mongolia out of its current financial troubles.
