- The current US administration disregards 'special relationships' with allies and uses leverage for concessions.
- Unpaid WWI debts by the UK and France, now worth trillions with interest, could be a point of contention.
- The US might consider swapping UK and French-held US Treasuries for longer-term obligations or using debts as setoffs.
- Such actions, though seemingly extreme, align with the administration's unconventional approach.
