Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon speaks during a media conference in Brussels. PAimages/Geoffroy Van der Hasselt. All rights reserved.Scottish First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon, has barely put a foot wrong in the days since the UK voted for Brexit.
From meetings in Brussels with the presidents of the European Commission and European Parliament – Jean-Claude Juncker and Martin Schulz – to the establishment of a committee of experts to advise the Scottish government and parliament on options to protect Scotland’s interests in the face of Brexit, to meetings with the Scottish diplomatic and business communities.
The committee of experts has yet to pronounce on options which could range from Scotland mirroring EU laws in devolved areas, to staying in as much of the single market as possible, to full independence as a state and as an EU member state.
