    Solution

    The verb "lead" is incorrect in this context. The correct past tense form of "lead" is "led". The sentence describes something that has already happened, so the past tense "led" should be used.

    The correct sentence should read: "The trade disputes have led to higher tariffs by the two countries and created unease over the depth of their security alliance."
