Former US President Donald Trump's visit to Scotland, where he is opening a new golf course and revisiting his mother's homeland, has reignited longstanding tensions.
The trip is marked by widespread protests, significant security concerns, and controversy over the strain placed on Scottish police resources, with unions threatening legal action over alleged breaches of workforce agreements. Local opposition to Trump's golf resorts remains strong, and his presence is expected to draw both political attention and public demonstrations. The visit is one of the largest security operations in Scotland since the Queen's funeral, involving thousands of officers and heightened airport restrictions.
Despite official welcomes from some politicians, Trump's complex relationship with Scotland continues to provoke mixed reactions.
