The police announced on Tuesday evening that there were four arrests as a result of a media -effective campaign in Windsor, all four people were in custody. “We take every non-approved activity around Windsor Castle very seriously,” said Chief Superintendent Felicity Parker. The officers would have reacted quickly and stopped the projection.

The now deceased US multimillionaire Jeffrey Epstein, who had the highest circles, had operated a abuse ring that fell victim to dozens of young women and girls. The affair has been pursuing the US president for weeks. He denies that he knew about the machinations of his former acquaintance, but his critics don’t give up. In an interview, Epstein had indicated that they had been “the best friend of Trump” for more than ten years. Trump, on the other hand, had called Epstein a “great guy”. “It’s always a lot of fun with him,” he said in 2002.

The Epstein scandal also repeatedly hit high waves in Great Britain. The brother of King Charles III, Prince Andrew, was once friends with Epstein. One of the victims accused him of having misused her several times as a minor. Andrew always denied the allegations. A lawsuit ended in comparison. Just a few days ago, Prime Minister Keir Strandmer had to recall his ambassador to Washington because this close relationships with Epstein had also maintained. The affair threatens to overshadow the Trump visit. Protests against Trump are also planned in London on Wednesday.

This morning the President and First Lady will be expected at the Windsor Castle for the official start. There, among others, the two will meet with King Charles and Queen Camilla as well as the heirs to the throne Prince William and Princess Kate. Political talks are planned on Thursday. Trump is the first US President to honor the honor of a state visit to Great Britain for the second time.

At the official start of the state visit, the US President and his wife will be welcomed by Windsor Palace by the heirs of the throne, Prince William and his wife Catherine on Wednesday. Afterwards there is a coaching trip together with King Charles III. On, Queen Camilla also hopes to take a cold despite a cold. A state banquet is then planned in the evening.
