The Democratic Party of Mongolia was able to get the right to organize this international conference in Mongolia because it is recognized on the international stage as a political institution with a reputation, experience, and state power.

On this occasion, the president of the International Democratic Youth Union, Michael Dust, said that “If Mongolia slips on the democracy index, there is a risk of falling into the category of authoritarian regimes.”
