Slovakia’s Prime Minister, a known supporter of Donald Trump, has expressed concerns to fellow EU leaders regarding the US President’s mental state. Robert Fico, an advocate of Trump’s views on the EU, reportedly raised worries about the “psychological state” of the US President during a recent meeting at Mar-a-Lago in Florida.
According to sources, Fico described Trump as “dangerous” after their face-to-face discussion on January 17. The concerns were shared at an informal gathering in Brussels on January 22, where diplomats discussed Trump’s alleged interest in acquiring Greenland.
Multiple European diplomats, speaking on condition of anonymity, revealed that Fico seemed troubled and even characterized Trump as “out of his mind” following their meeting. However, the White House Deputy Press Secretary dismissed these claims as “fake news” and affirmed the meeting was positive.
Fico, a prominent pro-Trump figure in Europe, has previously praised the US President for his contributions to Europe. Despite reports of unease among European leaders about Trump’s behavior, a senior administration official present at the Mar-a-Lago meeting described it as pleasant and normal, with no awkward moments.
In a social media post, Fico highlighted the meeting as a symbol of respect and trust from Trump, focusing their talks on various issues including Ukraine. While concerns about Trump’s unpredictability and health are growing in European political circles, the President has refuted claims of cognitive impairment or health issues in recent interviews.
European officials are reportedly engaging in more discussions about Trump’s behavior, indicating a heightened level of concern regarding his stability. Trump’s denial of any health issues contrasts with the unease felt among European leaders, highlighting ongoing tensions and uncertainties in transatlantic relations.
