Alex Salmond's Repatriation and Tributes
Alex Salmond, former First Minister of Scotland, passed away at age 69 due to a heart attack in North Macedonia, where he was attending a conference. His body was repatriated to Scotland on a chartered flight funded by billionaire businessman Sir Tom Hunter, after calls for RAF assistance were declined. Salmond's coffin was draped in the Scottish Saltire and received with a guard of honor both in North Macedonia and upon arrival in Aberdeen, Scotland. Salmond, a pivotal figure in Scottish politics, led the SNP and the independence movement, advocating for Scotland's separation from the UK. His death elicited widespread tributes, including from the King and various political figures, highlighting his impact on Scottish nationalism. A private family funeral and a public memorial service are planned to honor his legacy.
