    VISIT TO THE SENATE OF THE PRESIDENT AND FIRST LADY OF MONGOLIA

  Mr. JOHNSTON. Mr. President, on behalf of Senator Hatfield and 
myself, I would like to introduce to the Senate the distinguished 
President of Mongolia, President Ochirbat and the First Lady, First 
Lady Tsevelmaa. Mr. Ochirbat is not only President of Mongolia, but he 
is generally credited with

being the architect of democracy in Mongolia.
  Senator Hatfield and I, and a number of other United States Senators, 
had the great pleasure and honor of going to Mongolia in August of this 
year, and frankly we were overwhelmed not only with the friendship 
extended to us but with the importance of this country, its strategic 
location in Asia and its friendship toward America.
  So we welcome the President of Mongolia and the First Lady, and look 
forward to many years of friendship with the President and his great 
country.
  [Applause, Senators rising.]
