China-Mongolia border port handles nearly 1.33 mln travelers in Jan-Nov www.xinhuanet.com

Erenhot, the largest land port on the China-Mongolia border, handled nearly 1.33 million inbound and outbound travelers in the first 11 months of this year, reaching a peak of over 8,870 people in a single day, local authorities said.
During this period, the land port handled some 169,000 vehicles, according to the port's entry-exit border inspection station.
Customs clearance services for passenger traffic at the Erenhot highway port, located on the border of north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, resumed on Jan. 8, and China-Mongolia international passenger train services resumed on Aug. 30.
In recent years, bilateral trade between China and Mongolia has seen a steady rise in scale.
In 2022, bilateral trade totaled 12.2 billion U.S. dollars in value, up 34 percent year on year. It soared 62.6 percent year on year in the first six months of 2023, maintaining a strong growth momentum, according to official data.

Skies in Mongolia mysteriously turn blood-red. Pictures show eerie phenomena www.indiatoday.in

In an extraordinary celestial display, the skies over Mongolia turned deep, blood-red as the country experienced one of the rarest auroral events on Friday and early Saturday.
The intense colouration is attributed to the initial impact of a significant solar storm that collided with Earth, creating a spectacle that left onlookers in awe.
The phenomenon, known as an aurora, typically occurs closer to the poles and is often green in colour. However, the auroras seen in Mongolia were of a striking crimson hue, a rarity caused by the interaction of solar particles with oxygen at high altitudes — over 241 kilometres above the Earth's surface, where the atmosphere is much thinner.
This particular shade of red is considered the most uncommon colour of the Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, and its appearance is closely linked to periods of intense solar activity.
The ongoing solar storm responsible for this event was the result of multiple coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from the Sun, which occurred on November 27, 2023. These CMEs sent a barrage of high-energy particles hurtling towards Earth, with the first wave reaching our planet late on November 29.
The red auroras are a consequence of these solar particles colliding with oxygen molecules at higher altitudes. At such great heights, the density of oxygen is lower, and the collisions occur less frequently, resulting in the emission of red light rather than the more common green. This process is akin to the way neon lights operate, with excited gas atoms releasing photons of light when they return to their ground state.
Historically, red auroras have been documented during some of the most powerful geomagnetic storms, such as the Carrington Event of 1859, which remains the most intense solar storm on record. During that event, red auroras were reported as far south as the Caribbean and Mexico, with the skies so bright that birds began to sing, mistaking the illuminated night for morning.
The occurrence of the red aurora in Mongolia has provided scientists with a unique opportunity to study the effects of solar storms at lower latitudes. While the sight may be mesmerizing, it also serves as a reminder of the Sun's immense power and the potential impact of solar weather on our technologically dependent society.

Mongolia moves to redeem USD 600 million Khuraldai bond www.news.mn

Mongolia announced debt regulation measures to refinance its USD 600 million Khuraldai bond.
Ulaanbaatar extended an offer to investors for a cash buyback of the 8.75 percent interest rate, with the Khuraldai bond set to mature in 2024. The move allows for the potential deferral of the payment period for a specific portion of the foreign debt.
Initially, the Mongolian government issued USD 650million in bonds with a term of five years, for both the Gerege and Khuraldai bonds, and an interest rate expectation of 11-12 percent. However, a total of USD 4 billion in orders were received from 138 investors. That led to a decrease in the interest rate to 8.75 percent.
The government of Mongolia has issued eight bonds since 2012, raising USD 5.8 billion, with the capital earmarked for debt refinancing, tackling the country’s budget deficit and funding major projects.
Fitch Ratings has assigned Mongolia’s proposed US dollar bonds a ‘B’ rating. That’s in line with Mongolia’s ‘B’ Long-Term Foreign-Currency Issuer Default Rating (IDR).
The redeeming of the Khuraldai bond comes following Mongolia’s economic bounceback from impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The government says the country’s economy is projected to grow by 5.8 percent in 2023, up from 4.7 percent in 2022, and 6.2 percent in 2024, with the country’s deficit falling by 60 percent and exports rebounding strongly.
In a boost to growth, the Government announced the commencement of underground production at the giant Oyu Tolgoi copper mine in the Gobi Desert with Rio Tinto in March.

All roads seem to lead to Mongolia www.news.mn

A report published by Rossiyskaya Gazeta cites a Russian deputy prime minister, Marat Khusnullin, as saying Moscow wants to extend the M-12 highway to China via Mongolia. Currently, the M-12 connects Russia to Kazakhstan. Expansion would facilitate growth in tourism and ground transport, Khusnullin said.
Meanwhile, Uzbekistan and Mongolia are in the process of updating an agreement on road and air transport, striving to simplify transit from/to China, the Mongolian National News Agency reports. Uzbek and Mongolian officials agreed in a memorandum of understanding to facilitate the transit of goods not only between China and Europe, but also to Iran, Pakistan and India.

Mongolia urges Russia, other nations to return cultural artefacts www.news.mn

Mongolia on Monday called for more support from Russia, Britain, and other countries to repatriate hundreds of cultural artefacts, some dating back over two millennia.
Key artefacts include a letter from Mongolia’s first prime minister declaring independence from China’s Manchu dynasty, currently held at the British Library in London, the Mongolian government said in a statement.
Artefacts associated with the Persian statesman Rashid al-Din who worked in the courts of several Mongol rulers of Persia in the 13th and 14th centuries are being kept at the Museum of Edinburgh, it also said.
In recent decades, many countries, including former colonies of European empires, have requested the return of cultural and historical artefacts taken away years ago, many of which are housed in museums reluctant to surrender their collections.
Mongolia has made some headway in claiming back its cultural artefacts. Earlier this year, the United States returned dinosaur fossils taken out of Mongolia, including the skull of an alioramus, a smaller version of a tyrannosaurus rex that lived 70 million years ago.
At a forum in Russia last week, Mongolia’s Culture Minister Ch.Nomin also requested Moscow’s help with identifying and returning artefacts that were sent to Russia for research and restoration purposes one hundred years ago, including artefacts from the Hunnu dynasty 2,000 years ago excavated from the Noyon Uul burial site by Russian explorer Pyotr Kozlov in the 1920s.

Mongolian coal shipments to China declined www.news.mn

Mongolian metallurgical coal shipments to China through the Gantsmod land port declined in the week to 12 November amid winter weighing on coal deliveries, but overall year-to-date shipments remained sharply higher on the year.
Daily coal haulage via the Gantsmod port reached 951 trucks, down 9.7 percent on the week, China-based consultancy Haitong International Securities said in a latest note. But despite this, the number of trucks carrying coal through Gantsmod during the January-November period reached 228,600, more than double year on year.
Back in 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic lowered coal truck hauls from Mongolia through the Gantsmod port. But since then, Mongolia has emerged as the largest met coal supplier to China, overtaking China’s traditionally large supplier Australia. In the near term, met coal shipments from Mongolia to China are expected to decline due to the winter season, as lower temperatures have been impacting loading and unloading, sources said.
The number of Mongolian trucks carrying coal to China may not breach the 1,000 mark in the near term, analysts at Haitong said.
