Nicola Sturgeon believes “it’s hard not to conclude” Donald Trump is racist.
The First Minister made the comment when asked about the US president’s handling of George Floyd’s death.
The dad, 46, died after a white police officer held him down by kneeling on his neck in Minneapolis on May 25, sparking worldwide outrage and mass protests in the US.
Trump has faced fierce criticism over his response, pressing state governors to take a more forceful approach against protesters.
In a special interview airing across the Hits Radio Network this morning, Sturgeon was asked if Trump was a racist.
