Trump arrives in Ireland: politics, protests and golf mark the visit

CNN Portugal12 September 2026 at 10:14

The former President of the United States Donald Trump arrived in Ireland on a visit that is not official, the main reason being participation in a golf tournament. The visit takes place in a context of international interest in Trump's figure, who continues to be a polarizing figure in American and world politics.

The trip is being closely followed by the Irish authorities, who have set up a special operation to manage the visit. The main objective of this operation is to prevent Trump's delegation from crossing paths with the protests that are expected during his stay in the country.

The article is written from Dublin by António Assis Teixeira, who explains in detail Trump's agenda during the visit to Ireland. The choice of the country for a golf tournament is not casual, since Trump owns golf courses in Ireland, which justifies the American former president's trip.

Why this matters

Readers in Portugal and Ireland are interested in following how the protests against Trump unfold and what impact the visit has on the bilateral relationship, especially regarding diplomatic questions that may arise during the stay. The operation to separate the delegation from the demonstrators shows the political tensions surrounding the former president's presence.
