Recent years have seen China and Mongolia developing an overall strategic partnership, with consensus reached for a China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor interlocking with China's national "Belt and Road Initiative" and Mongolia's Road of Grasslands policy. Inner Mongolia autonomous region, as China's north gateway, has played an irreplaceable role and made a remarkable contribution in taking China-Mongolia friendship to a higher level.

The 2nd China-Mongolia Expo (CME) is held in Hohhot, capital of Inner Mongolia autonomous region from Sept 26 to 30. The expo involves a series of trade negotiation and promotion fairs, industrial forums, cultural performances and art exhibitions.
