Protests broke out in both London and at Trump’s golf course in Scotland when he visited the U.K. last summer. Demonstrations are similarly expected during his upcoming visit, HuffPost UK reports.

The Trumps will also honor the 75th anniversary of D-Day in both Portsmouth, England, and Normandy, France, the White House said Tuesday. Trump is also expected to hold a bilateral meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron.
