Police are preparing for a potential visit by Donald Trump to his golf resort in Aberdeenshire later this month. Trump is expected to open a new golf course during this visit. Although no private meeting with King Charles is anticipated, a state visit to the UK is likely in September. Police Scotland is coordinating with the UK government and has briefed the first minister on the preparations, emphasizing the need for significant security measures. Trump's last visit in 2018 faced large protests and considerable security demands.
"Planning is under way for a potential visit to Scotland later this month. While official confirmation has not yet been made, it is important that we prepare in advance for what would be a significant policing operation."
"His last presidential visit in 2018 required a major security operation with thousands protesting in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen."
"The company previously said it would feature the 'largest sand dunes in Scotland' alongside the original course - now designated as the Old Course - completed in 2012."
