If they sold the gold, how do they expect to get it back?

They didn't sell it. Many countries pay other countries to hold their gold.
They now want it back and England wants to know why. They probably don't have it.

They stored it in NYC.

I got it now. I was a little slow on the uptake, as they say. It helps to read the whole article. Thanks.

I was reading about them selling gold to Turkey and wrongly assumed they had sold the gold they were wanting back. Sounds like the Bank of London is going to play hard to get.

You know that as soon as Maduro gets his hands on some or all of that $550 million in gold, it will be gone in no time.

I wouldn't be surprised if he sees his own end game rearing it's ugly head up very soon and he needs some cash to run with.

He'd be welcomed in exile in Cuba with open arms if he brought a little gold along to sweeten the deal.
