"Macron's historic visit to Mongolia as French President"

French President Emmanuel Macron made a symbolic visit to Mongolia, the first by a French president, as part of France's efforts to diversify partnerships and loosen the constraint exerted on Russia's neighbors. Mongolia is looking to diversify its partnerships to deal with its large Russian and Chinese neighbors. Macron attended a state dinner at the museum of Genghis Khan and discussed European efforts to diversify supplies to guarantee energy sovereignty. Mongolia has been the subject of growing interest from the United States as part of a strategy to thwart the rise of China.
