Here, by **fiscal policy** we mean the collection of actions that determine a sequence of net-of-interest government deficits $\{g_t\}_{t=0}^\infty$ that must be financed by issuing to the public either money or interest bearing bonds.

By **monetary policy** or **debt-management policy**, we mean the collection of actions that determine how the government divides its portolio of debts to the public between interest-bearing parts (government bonds) and non-interest-bearing parts (money).

(or its delegate, say, a central bank) either buys government bonds from the public for newly issued money, or sells bonds to the public and withdraws the money it receives from public circulation.

That leaves the public with less currency but more government interest-bearing bonds.

Since the public has less currency (it's supply has diminished) it is plausible to anticipate that the price level at time $0$ will be driven downward.

But that is not the end of the story, because this **open market operation** at time $0$ has consequences for future settings of $m_{t+1}$ and the gross-of-interest government deficit $\bar g_t$.
