Donald Trump reportedly left a key European ally "traumatized" by his "psychological state" after a private meeting.
Diplomats close to the situation told Politico that prime minister of Slovakia Robert Fico felt the president's behavior came across as "dangerous" during a recent sit-down at Mar-a-Lago.
Fico — typically a fan of the 79-year-old POTUS — allegedly expressed concern in Brussels, Belgium, on January 22, while on the sidelines of an emergency EU summit organized to discuss transatlantic relations amid Trump's repeated threats to acquire Greenland.
White House Blasts Report as 'Fake News'

Robert Fico allegedly expressed concern over Donald Trump's 'psychological state' on the sidelines of a meeting in Brussels, Belgium on January 22.
However, the diplomats said Fico didn't reveal what Trump said during their conversation that made him so unsettled, only that the U.S. leader was acting "out of his mind."
The White House slammed Politico's report as "fake news," claiming the story was manufactured by "anonymous European diplomats who are trying to be relevant."
"The meeting at Mar-a-Lago was positive and productive," spokesperson Anna Kelly said. A senior administration official who attended the meeting and spoke to the outlet had the same view.
