The British pound is seen adding close to 1% against the dollar on Tuesday amid sharp decline in the greenback overseas. The dollar index lingers at a one-week low, well below 99 mark on escalating tensions after US President Donald Trump announcement to impose new tariffs on goods from eight European countries fueled concerns about a broader trade war. US President Donald Trump said over the weekend that a 10% tariff would be imposed from February 1 on goods from Denmark, Sweden, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Finland, Britain, and Norway until the US is allowed to purchase Greenland.
