Irish president says private meeting with King was ‘very interesting’
The dinner focused on farming and sustainability, and Connolly said the King’s Foundation “encompasses so much,” including agriculture and AI, after a private talk with Charles.
- On Wednesday, Irish President Catherine Connolly met King Charles at Dumfries House in East Ayrshire during her four-day official visit to Scotland, discussing agriculture, sustainability, and democracy.
- Earlier on Wednesday, First Minister John Swinney hosted President Connolly at Bute House in Edinburgh, stressing the 'deep and enduring connections' between Scotland and Ireland.
- Swinney and Connolly discussed the Cardiff memorandum on independence, though the First Minister faced criticism from Unionists for referring to Northern Ireland as 'the north of Ireland.'
- During the visit, the President received an honorary fellowship from the Royal Society of Edinburgh, where she praised the institution's message of 'learning for learning's sake' as 'vitally important.'
- Connolly's itinerary includes travel to Glasgow, Coatbridge, and the Isle of Skye, where she will tour Sabhal Mor Ostaig, Scotland's national centre for Gaelic language and culture.
