Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico fiercely denied a Politico report that said he was “shocked” by President Trump’s state of mind during his visit to Mar-a-Lago in Florida this month.
Politico, citing five unnamed European diplomats, reported that Fico told European Union leaders at a summit in Brussels last week that his meeting with the U.S. president left him concerned about Trump’s “psychological state.
Two of the diplomats said Fico used the word “dangerous” to describe the way Trump came across during the Jan. 17 meeting at Trump’s estate in Florida, according to Politico.
“I must emphatically reject the lies of the POLITICO portal about how I assessed my meeting with US President D. Trump at an informal summit in Brussels,” Fico wrote in a post on the social platform X.
“No one heard anything, no one saw anything, there are no witnesses, but nothing prevented the POLITICO portal from coming up with lies,” he continued.
