UK Mulls Tough Response to Trump’s Tariff Chaos

A historian has warned that Donald Trump could face Britain's "apex weapon" if he sparks a global trade war as president. Dr. Martin Farr, a senior lecturer at Newcastle University, suggested the U.S. might encounter the influence of the British Royal Family as a strategic response. The remarks highlight potential diplomatic tensions over trade policies. Farr described the Royal Family as one of the UK's most powerful assets, capable of shaping international relations. The comments come amid speculation about how nations might counter aggressive trade measures. While no specific actions were detailed, the statement underscores the UK's potential leverage in global economic disputes. The warning follows Trump's history of imposing tariffs during his first term. Analysts are closely watching how world leaders might respond to renewed protectionist policies. The Royal Family's soft power has long been a tool for British diplomacy, though its role in trade conflicts remains unconventional. The situation remains speculative as Trump has yet to outline detailed trade plans.
