Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to Mongolia unfolded with a grand ceremonial welcome in Ulaanbaatar, marked by an honor guard and an impressive cavalry escort.
The visit included high-profile meetings with Mongolian President Ukhnagiin Khurelsukh and other top officials, as well as a symbolic wreath-laying at the monument to Georgy Zhukov.
A notable cultural engagement saw Putin and Khurelsukh participating in a choreography lesson with local students.
The visit, which concluded with a gala reception celebrating the 85th anniversary of the victory at Khalkhin Gol, occurred under the shadow of international scrutiny due to the ICC arrest warrant against Putin for alleged war crimes.
Despite this, Mongolia chose not to act on the warrant, highlighting the complex geopolitical dynamics at play.
