Kazakhstan-to-Mongolia direction (4)

I believe the answer is:

east

(Other definitions for east that I've seen before include "Compass bearing" , "Direction taken when going from the US towards Ireland" , "Airport near Derby" , "bridge-player" , "On most maps it's right!" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
