Donald Trump commenced a five-day private visit to Scotland, starting with a round of golf at his Turnberry resort.
He is set to meet European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen on Sunday for discussions on the trading relationship between Europe and the US.
Further talks are scheduled with Sir Keir Starmer on Monday, expected to focus on trade issues, including potential tariff reductions for British steel.
Trump will also meet Scottish First Minister John Swinney, who plans to address global and humanitarian concerns, notably the suffering in Gaza.
The visit has seen significant security operations, and while no protesters were present during his golf game, demonstrations occurred in Edinburgh and Aberdeen.
