Under the plan, its £488 billion portfolio would be gradually liquidated by September 2034. According to the still-unfinalized proposal, the bank would hold £120 billion of UK government bonds maturing in 2049 or later, matching them with future paper money issuance. Another £222 billion of bonds maturing before 2035 would be gradually liquidated, and the remaining £146 billion maturing between 2035 and 2049 would be sold at a rate of £20 billion per year, possibly directly to the government through the Debt Management Office. In a letter to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Bank of England Governor Bailey stated that the arrangement "maintains the independence of monetary policy" and will "maximize the effectiveness of funds by minimizing costs and risks during the programs implementation." All planned quantitative easing auctions will be suspended until April next year while consultations with the Debt Management Office (DMO) are underway regarding the terms of the sales. This postponement, by avoiding competition with government bond issuance, is expected to alleviate short-term pressure on government bond yields.On September 17, Liang Nan, Deputy Director of the Civil Aviation Administration of China, met with Yousef Hashim Aziz, Assistant Director General of the Civil Aviation Authority of the United Arab Emirates, in Beijing.

The United Kingdom announced on Sunday that it will increase tariffs on imports of platinum and palladium from Russia and Belarus as part of a new package of sanctions aimed at 1.7 billion pounds ($2.10 billion) of trade. According to the British government, the move is intended to further weaken Russian President Vladimir Putin's military machine.


Britain has announced that import tariffs on a variety of products will be raised by 35 percentage points, and that it will block the export of $250 million worth of chemicals, plastics, rubber, and machinery to Russia.

The British government will enact fresh measures in due time, it was stated.


As a punishment for Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Britain is working with its Western allies to undermine the Russian economy, and it has already sanctioned more than 1,000 persons and businesses.


Russia, a major producer of platinum and palladium, referred to its February invasion as a "special military operation" intended at demilitarizing and "denazifying" its neighbor.


More than 4 billion pounds of products will be subject to import and export sanctions, British Finance Minister Rishi Sunak warned, causing "substantial damage to Putin's war effort." Since the invasion of Ukraine, they represent the third wave of sanctions on Russia.


"We can and will defeat Putin's aspirations by working closely with our allies," Sunak said in a statement.
