The response to the coronavirus pandemic has shown the "sheer might" of the UK union, Boris Johnson has said ahead of Thursday's visit to Scotland.
The trip, a year on since he became PM, will see Mr Johnson meet members of the armed forces and their families.
He said troops had done "vital work" to support the NHS during the pandemic and praised Treasury job retention schemes.
But the SNP said the visit showed Mr Johnson was "in a panic" about rising support for Scottish independence.
Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said she had no plans to meet Mr Johnson, but that she would continue work with his government on the "immediate priority" of tackling coronavirus.
Mr Johnson said he "pledged to be a prime minister for every corner of the United Kingdom", adding that the response to the pandemic had shown his government's commitment to the whole of the UK.
