US president Donald Trump has been invited to meet King Charles in Scotland to discuss an unprecedented second state visit to the UK.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer used a trip to the White House on Thursday to present the president with an official letter from the monarch offering a meeting at either Dumfries House or Balmoral Castle to discuss the logistics.
A meeting in Scotland would be Trump’s first return to the country, where he has family and business connections, since 2023.
The only previous occasion a sitting president has visited Balmoral was Dwight D Eisenhower in 1959, when he described it as his “Scottish White House”.
