BEIJING, Aug. 11 (Xinhua) — Three major Chinese financial institutions on Monday announced measures to simplify procedures for overseas central banks and similar institutions to open domestic accounts, a latest move to further streamline the country's bond market environment.

The National Interbank Finance Centre said it had eased documentation requirements for opening accounts and accessing relevant networks, noting that both Bond Connect and settlement agency accounts no longer required a letter of commitment to comply with regulatory requirements.

The center expects that the measure will improve the efficiency and convenience of overseas central banks, monetary authorities, international financial institutions and sovereign wealth funds investing in China's interbank bond market.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 11 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump said at a press conference at the White House on Monday that he was deploying the National Guard to help restore law and order and public safety in Washington.

D. Trump also said he had formally invoked the District of Columbia Home Rule Act to place the Metropolitan Police Department under direct federal control.

“Today is D.C. Liberation Day, and we are going to take back our capital,” the American leader noted.

The president said his administration deployed 500 federal agents to the district last week, including members of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Park Police, the Marshals Service, the Secret Service and the Department of Homeland Security.
