Thousands of Donald Trump Opponents March in Scotland

As Donald Trump attended his golf resort in Scotland, thousands of residents from three Scottish cities held protests against him on Saturday, July 13. The Scottish police estimated the total number of protesters in Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Dundee, which took place on the morning of July 13, to be around 11,000. The demonstration in Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland, began with protesters gathering in front of the Parliament building and a speech by Richard Leonard, the leader of the Labour Party, followed by a march through the streets of the city. During the protests, the same six-meter-tall Donald Trump balloon that was seen in the London protests the day before was flown, and protesters held placards against the U.S. President. Similar demonstrations were also held in Glasgow and Dundee, near two golf clubs owned by Mr. Trump. In London, protests against Donald Trump continued for the second day, with a smaller group gathering in support of him, and according to the German news agency, there were scattered clashes between the two groups. Mr. Trump traveled from London to Glasgow on Friday evening, and at the same time, a member of the 'Green Peace' group flew a paraglider displaying a banner opposing Trump. On Saturday morning, Donald Trump tweeted that he had arrived at his golf resort, Turnberry, and that he had two days of 'meetings, calls, and maybe a little golf' ahead of him. Mr. Trump has invested in two golf clubs and a hotel for many years and has owned a golf resort in Scotland since 2014. The U.S. President will leave Scotland on Sunday for Helsinki, the capital of Finland, to meet and discuss with Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia, on Monday. Donald Trump's European trip began on Wednesday with his participation in a two-day NATO summit in Brussels. He then went to London, where during his two-day stay, he met with Prime Minister Theresa May and also met with Queen Elizabeth II.
