Nicola Sturgeon – 2021 Comments on Trump Supporters Attacking the Capitol Building

The comments made by Nicola Sturgeon, the Scottish First Minister, on 6 January 2021.

The scenes from the Capitol are utterly horrifying. Solidarity with those in the United States on the side of democracy and the peaceful and constitutional transfer of power. Shame on those who have incited this attack on democracy.
