Former U.S. President Donald Trump's visit to Scotland, where he owns multiple golf resorts and has family roots, is drawing widespread protests and significant controversy.
The trip has triggered a massive security operation, with thousands of police officers redeployed and concerns raised by police unions over strained resources and alleged breaches of workforce agreements. Local opposition to Trump's business ventures and political legacy remains strong, with demonstrations planned across major cities. The visit is also complicated by ongoing trade talks and diplomatic meetings, but public sentiment is largely mixed or hostile.
Overall, Trump's presence is seen as a major logistical and political headache for Scottish authorities.
