May continued: "What I want to see is as we sit and and negotiate that deal with the EU, I think it's incumbent on the Scottish government to support the proposals, to be speaking up for those proposals in Europe, rather than sowing the politics of division."
"It's important that as we work on this deal, we are working with those in Scotland to deliver for Scotland. A good deal for the UK is a good deal for Scotland," she added.
With the British parliament in its summer recess, May's day trip to Scotland was her first domestic appearance since her meeting last week with the French president Emmanuel Macron.
Media reports in Scotland said during her visit to Edinburgh, May came under pressure from Sturgeon to set out more details of what Britain's future relationship with the EU might look like after it leaves the bloc next March.
According to Scotland's independent television broadcaster STV, Sturgeon, who is also leader of the Scottish Nationalist Party, said the half-hour bilateral talks with May failed to allay her fears that Britain is increasingly risking a no-deal Brexit. Sturgeon said her focus is on avoiding a cliff edge Brexit in March.
The STV report said Sturgeon expects to revisit the question of Scottish independence from the United Kingdom as the British government continues to flounder on Brexit.
She said she is likely to make a statement on her plans for Scottish independence in October, but added that she could not yet say what its content would be.
