Mongolian President Nambaryn Enkhbayar is scheduled to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit in Kyrgyzstan in late August as an observer, according to the press office of Mongolia's Foreign Ministry on Thursday.
Mongolia hopes to boost economic cooperation with SCO nations in the fields of electric power, infrastructure, transit and transport. It also wants to obtain information about related cooperation projects at the SCO summit, said the press office.
