Mongolia interested in buying Ukraine's An planes.

KIEV, June 30 (Itar-Tass) -- Mongolia is interested in the purchase of
Ukrainian-made Antonov airplanes, Mongolian President Tsakhia Elbegdorj,
who is currently on a state visit to Ukraine, told a Ukrainian-Mongolian
business forum on Wednesday.
"The Antonov plant is well competitive at an international level. If
we have such an opportunity we will certainly buy aircraft manufacture by
this plant," he said.
According to the Mongolian leader, his country is currently using
about 60 An airplanes. The issue of servicing Mongolia's An fleet was
raised at Wednesday's talks.
Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich, for his part, said his country
sets a task to reach a GDP growth of eight percent, like in Mongolia. "Our
dream is to reach an annual growth of seven to eight percent," Yanukovich
stressed and added that Ukraine is ready to invest to Mongolia's economy.
The Mongolian president said Ukrainian investments were welcome in his
country. "Ukrainian investments are very important for us, the more so,
Mongolia offers the most favourable tax conditions for doing business," he
said.
