Russian President Dmitry Medvedev will on Wednesday end his two-day state visit to Mongolia. It is planned that he will attend festivities devoted to the 70th anniversary of the joint victory on the Khalkhin-Gol River and hand state awards to Mongolian veterans.
The Battle of Khalkhin Gol was the decisive engagement of the undeclared Soviet-Japanese Border War, or Japanese-Soviet War, fought between the Soviet Union, Mongolia and the Empire of Japan in 1939. The battle was named after the river Khalkhin Gol passing through the battlefield. In Japan, the battle was known as the Nomonhan Incident after a nearby village on the border between Mongolia and Manchuria.
Besides, the Russian president will attend the national holiday Naadam that the Mongolian authorities hold specially in his honour.
