Security increased in Turnberry before Trump arrives

Before the arrival of Donald Trump on Friday, a major security campaign is going on in South Irshire and Aberdeenshire.

The US President is expected to visit his club in his Turnberry Resort and Meni during a four -day visit to Scotland.

Girvan village, close to Turnberry, has seen its population in general with the arrival of security officers and a large police presence.

Road closures and diversion have been installed, while a security post and a large fence have been installed outside the resort.

Trump last visited Turnberry, which he bought in 2014 a Dubai -based firm two years before his most recent term in the office.

In recent times, a convoy of police vehicles for Scotland has been seen as the officials around the UK have been designed to help in the policing operation.

The village of Girvan, which snatches the edge of the South Irshire Resort, has become a security sub -station before Trump’s arrival.

A large metal fence has been placed in favor of the syllabus, while the authorities were seen stopping every car while entering for safety check.

Variety of drivers around Girvan and nearby villages have also been kept.

Gavin Scott, an independent councilor at Girvan, said the journey was a chance to show the area around Girvan and the world.

But he said that the level of security has felt some local people “nervous”.

Mr. Scott said: “We are all very excited, although there is some negativity on who is taking this large -scale security bill.

“And he does [Trump] Is the place look like one of your American prisons? ,

He said: “This is great propaganda, this journey will probably go out worldwide and it shows the world that we are a beautiful part of the world here.

“But this is inconvenient, they have closed the main roads. I would say that there is more negativity about it.”

Iris Richie, who was running his dogs, tobby, screw up and Ro near the beach, said that he had not seen many police at the village center.

“This is not really so much of a nuisance, the way it is,” he said.

“It is quite easy to work around the restrictions in its own way, it’s not so much for an inconvenience.”

Local resident Margaret Beer said that local people were more concerned about the ability to protests than Trump’s arrival.

“In addition to road restrictions, I feel quite safe because there are police everywhere,” he said.

“This is his [Trump’s] Hotel, golf course is very popular so it does not really bother us.

“If there were protesters here, we would have been very angry about this. We have to keep politics aside.”

Meanwhile, Scottish Secretary Ian Murray has said that he planned to “warmly welcome Donald Trump” when he came to Scotland on Friday.

Murray told Good morning scotland of BBC Radio His meeting with the President was “unconfirmed”.

Scottish Secretary is a cabinet minister who represents Scottish interests within the UK government.

He said that it was in the “national interest” to welcome Trump warmly in Scotland, where President has family relations,

Murray said, “It is expected, but has not yet been completely confirmed,” when asked if he would meet Trump.

“Details are still working.”

He said: “Of course it is a warm welcome.

“We will always welcome the United States President – and the United States office and the office of the Prime Minister’s Office a warm welcome.

“My predecessor, David Mundel, met with the President when he went to Scotland for the last time, so it is a duty for us to ensure that we are properly welcoming foreign dignitaries in Scotland, especially one who is our nearest and nearest partner who is in both economic and defense and security.”

In April 2019, dead Voted in favor of proposal raised in House of Commons Which called the then Prime Minister Theresa May to cancel Trump’s proposal for the official state visit during his first term.

The resolution offered by Labor’s Stephen Dauti stated that the house removed Trump’s “misunderstanding, racism and zenophobia” amid other criticisms of his time in the office.

Asked whether his idea had changed since then Murray said that there was “global interest” in preserving relations between the UK and the US.

He said in the program: “Long historical relations, cultural relations, economic relations between the US and Britain, we are the world’s closest allies and we have to ensure that we are working together for the benefit of our national interest and the benefits of global interest.

“Given the US that is our closest aide, given that we have signed a business agreement with them to remove tariffs for the benefit of Britain and Scottish businesses and at this time, it is really important to work with our global colleagues for these historical relations.”

Scottish conservative shadow Scottish Secretary, Andrew Bovi said that Murray had demonstrated “full U-turn” on Trump’s own view.

He said: “I am happy how important Ian Murray is to welcome Scotland, and how important it is to work creatively with the US President – but if he holds his hands up and owns his previous teen opportunism, he has more credibility.

“No wonder the public is closed by politics and politicians when they listen to the Scottish Secretary trying to take them for fools.”
