History

The China–Mongolia–Russia Economic Corridor is one of the six major land corridors of China's global infrastructure development initiative, the Belt and Road Initiative.[1]: 39  Its goal is to increase infrastructural and economic ties between cities including Beijing, Ulaanbaatar, Novosibirsk, Omsk, Yekaterinburg, and Saint Petersburg.[1]: 39 

The development of the corridor requires significant cooperation from Russia.[1]: 39  Progress has been slowed following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent deterioration of Russia-European Union Relations.[1]: 39 

In January 2024, Mongolia stated that it was seeking to establish a China-Mongolia-Russia summit to coordinate economic development, including of the economic corridor.[2]
