On Tuesday, U.S. President Donald Trump officially opened a new golf course at his expansive property in Scotland, marking the event with a quick round of golf before turning his attention back to Middle Eastern crises.

Originally set as a private visit, Trump's five-day trip to Scotland evolved into a diplomatic mission complete with a trade agreement with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and discussions aimed at resolving tensions between Cambodia and Thailand.

Amidst the backdrop of golf, Trump met with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer to address a worsening hunger crisis in Gaza, disputed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's stance, and imposed deadlines on Russian President Vladimir Putin concerning the war in Ukraine.
