ULAN BATOR, March 27 (Xinhua) -- Mongolian Prime Minister Gombojav Zandanshatar has submitted a resignation letter to the governing board of the ruling Mongolian People's Party, local media reported on Friday, citing Yangug Sodbaatar, the party's general secretary.
The Standing Committee on State Structure of Mongolia's parliament or State Great Khural on Friday supported Zandanshatar's request to resign.
The decision came after the governing board of the ruling Mongolian People's Party accepted his resignation letter earlier the same day.
"In light of the stagnation of work at all levels of government, I have set aside my personal interests and requested to be relieved of my duties in the interest of the state," Zandanshatar said in a statement.
The plenary session of the State Great Khural is expected to consider his resignation next.
Zandanshatar has served as Prime Minister since June 2025. ■
