Parties agreed to expand cooperation in content production and exchange

Mongolia’s largest state news agency MONTSAME, and the Sputnik news agency and radio of the Russian Federation established a cooperation agreement. According to the agreement, which supplements the current cooperation memo between Sputnik and MONTSAME, the parties agreed to expand cooperation in content production and exchange. The sides also will strengthen professional ties and will exchange experience in the media. It is very important for Sputnik to develop cooperation with such a reputable partner as the MONTSAME, said Sergei Kochetkov, Sputnik First Deputy Editor-in-Chief. MONTSAME News Agency was established in 1921. Since then, the MONTSAME has been providing news in Mongolian, English, Japanese, Chinese and Russian by variety of news outlets. Since its foundation, the MONTSAME news agency has been cooperating with the news agencies of its two neighbor countries. The recent upgrading of the cooperation agreement with Sputnik is believed to make valuable contribution to Mongolian-Russian relations and cooperation in the years to come.
