Mongolian MP D.Khayankhyarvaa has just presented a letter for dissolving Cabinet to Speaker of Parliament M.Enkhbold. According to some sources, a total of 27 MPs have signed the letter, however, the actual number is still unknown.
The Mongolian People’s Party (MPP) won a landslide victory in the 2016 general election, taking 65 out of 76 seats in the national parliament and formed the cabinet headed by former Prime Minister J.Erdenebat. However, J.Erdenebat was was accused with an abuse of power and dismissed from his post and his Cabinet was dissolved following a vote of no confidence in the State Great Khural (parliament) in September, 2017. Since then, the MPP has been plagued by numerous problems, such as the current SME Fund scandal, where large numbers of MP’s and government officials allegedly benefited to the tune of several million dollars.
