Cuba and Mongolia have signed a five-year Agreement of Sports Cooperation to boost the bilateral ties on sports management and administration.

The accord was signed by Mongolia Ambassador Otgonbayar Davaasambuu and Antonio Becali, president of Cuban National Sports Institute (Inder) Monday, reports Xinhua.

The agreement covers a wide range of areas, such as sports infrastructure, information and sports documentation and anti-doping collaboration.
