TOKYO —
Prime Minister Naoto Kan on Saturday agreed with Mongolian Prime Minister Sukhbaatar Batbold to cooperate in promoting development projects of rare earth mineral mines in Mongolia, Japanese officials said. ‘‘Mongolia has high potential in mineral material development and this will serve the two countries’ national interests,’’ Kan was quoted as saying at a meeting with his Mongolian counterpart.
Batbold said Mongolia will be able to produce value-added products by introducing Japan’s advanced technology, according to the officials. Senior officials from major Japanese trading houses and other Japanese firms also joined the meeting. Batbold is visiting Tokyo to attend Sunday’s retirement ceremony for Mongolian former yokozuna Asashoryu, who left sumo in February.
