British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is preparing for a significant diplomatic encounter as he accepts an invitation to meet U.S. President Donald Trump during Trump's anticipated trip to Scotland. Details of the visit, including the exact date, remain under wraps, according to a source privy to the discussions but unauthorized to disclose them publicly.

Preparations are underway by Scottish police for Trump's possible arrival, which would be his first visit to the UK since last year's U.S. election. While the White House remains silent on the matter, both the British and American governments have yet to officially comment on the forthcoming diplomatic endeavor.

The meeting comes in the wake of a recently signed framework trade deal between the U.S. and the UK, a move born out of growing camaraderie between Trump and Starmer. Following a convivial meeting at the White House in February, where King Charles also extended a future state visit invitation to Trump, the leaders are now poised to further solidify international relations amidst rounds of golf at Trump's Scottish resorts.
