DOMINANT ANGLE
DW : la Grande-Bretagne utilise la monarchie pour amadouer Trump là où la diplomatie ordinaire échoue
Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media
ANALYSIS
Deutsche Welle takes an analytical angle on the US-UK relationship: after being the first country to sign a post-tariff trade deal with the US in 2025, Britain now finds itself in a weakened position. Trump mocked British military capabilities, called Starmer 'no Winston Churchill,' and declared the relationship 'sad.' Faced with the failure of conventional diplomacy, London deploys its best soft power asset: the monarchy, which Trump visibly respects. DW questions the durability of this strategy.
