The ceremony was attended by Prime Minister Zandan Shatar Gombojav, who congratulated the participants who reached the age of 16 and delivered a congratulatory speech. He noted: "Today, on this historic day, Mongolia has chosen the path of freedom, independence, and justice, proclaiming its republic in 1924. This is also the day we celebrate the anniversary of the adoption of the first constitution. You, the younger generation, will continue this historic choice. Becoming a citizen of Mongolia is not just about obtaining an identity card, but also about taking on the commitment to carry the name 'Mongol' with pride. You are the new hope of our country.
The ceremony dedicated to the oath of citizenship of Mongolia took place for the 23rd time. This year, 850 people participated in the event, among whom were 63,137 children who reached the age of 16. The main goal of this event is to instill in the youth a sense of patriotism, honesty, and pride in their culture and history, which is especially important for those receiving a national identity card.
