US President Donald Trump is spending four days in Scotland on a private visit.

He played two rounds of golf on Saturday and Sunday at his luxury Turnberry resort prior to meeting EU Commission president Ursula von der Leyen for trade talks.

He is due to meet Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and First Minister John Swinney, and open a second 18-hole golf course at his Menie estate in Aberdeenshire.

A major security operation has been ramped up since Trump arrived on Air Force One, with protests in Aberdeen and Edinburgh passing without incident over the weekend.
