What is "Awks"
"Awks. It’s one thing for a government to offer a £61m-off-the-books sweetener to reassure Nissan that Brexit wasn’t going to be such a big deal and it was fine for the Japanese carmaker to manufacture its new X-Trail model at its Sunderland plant."

Is "Awks" a noun in the paragraph above meaning "embarrassment", "awkward situation"?
