US threatens war over NI Protocol

Well, that was what the Guaridna hoped. They did their best to talk up a lame duck, but it still fizzled out:

Brexit: unilateral action on NI protocol ‘not conducive’ to trade deal, warns US

Exclusive: officials’ comments put paid to idea displeasure with UK is limited to Irish caucus on Capitol Hill

 

"It is true that there is no formal linkage between the protocol and a free trade agreement, but the current situation does not create a conducive environment,” the [US] insider said.,,,“I think as a broad matter, it’s a desire to avoid unilateral approaches and see a return to negotiations, to be able to reach a negotiated agreement with the EU that’s adopted in UK law.”
