Trump leaves for Scotland to inaugurate a new golf course in Aberdeenshire
Air Force One left in the morning for a flight expected to take around seven hours.
Trump is scheduled to land near Glasgow on Friday evening. He's spending the weekend at his family's golf course near Turnberry, then will meet with British Prime Minister Kier Starmer before heading to another of his courses near Abderdeen.
The Trump Organisation is opening a second golf course near Aberdeen next month. Trump is set to return to Washington on Tuesday.
Using this week's presidential overseas trip — with its sprawling entourage of advisers, White House and support staffers, Secret Service agents and reporters — to help show off Trump-brand golf destinations demonstrates how the president has become increasingly comfortable intermingling his governing pursuits with promoting his family's business interests.

Pakistan crossed red lines, terror camps faced the fire: Kiren Rijiju ahead of discussion on Operation Sindoor
The Lok Sabha is set to deliberate on Operation Sindoor, India's military response to the recent terror attack in Pahalgam. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh will lead the special discussion, highlighting the operation's strength, success, and decisive execution. Meanwhile, the session is expected to see heated exchanges, with the opposition preparing to question the government over U.S. President Donald Trump's recent remarks. Trump claimed that he intervened to prevent a potential nuclear conflict between India and Pakistan, claiming to have brokered a 'ceasefire.' India, however, has categorically stated that the halt in cross-border firing and military operations came following direct communication between the Directors General of Military Operations (DGMOs) of both nations, initiated, notably, at the request of Islamabad.
