Civil Will Party and Green Party assemblies agree to form alliance

The Civil Will Party and the Green Party have decided to form an alliance. The two parties held their separate assemblies on March 26 to discuss the issue, and members at both ratified the decision. A subsequent joint meeting of the two parties’ members elected the Leader of the GP, D.Enkhbat, as Leader of the alliance. He will be assisted by MP S.Oyun as First Deputy Leader; Nature and Environment Policy Advisor to the President, E.Zorigt, as Deputy Leader; Director of Grand Khaan G.Gankhuu as Secretary General; and by lawyer N.Batbayar, Director of Narmon LLC M.Khurelsukh, researcher N.Enkhzaya, Director of Tamir Welness LLC N.Ulziisaikhan and Director of Professional Bookkeepers Institution L.Amgalan as Secretaries. All were elected by majority vote.

Some disgruntled members of the GP continue to oppose the alliance and called the party’s assembly illegal. Led by O.Bum-Yalagch, they staged a protest demonstration at Sukhbaatar Square on the day.
