- Flying there at the time, we knew that the most important point on our agenda at the White House was to convince President Trump not to listen to potential suggestions from the Pentagon – because we assumed, one must always assume the worst-case scenario – that the number of soldiers in Poland needed to be reduced. And we prepared […], anticipating that we would have to persuade President Trump for quite some time during that meeting, once the media had left – Adam Bielan said on the “Otwarta Konserwa” channel.

- And President Trump decided right at the beginning that there would be no troop withdrawal. He elaborated on this topic considerably during those discussions, which I would describe as discreet. He also made very far-reaching proposals to the President and the Polish side, which perhaps should not yet be discussed publicly. But if even some of them are realized, I think it will be enormously beneficial for our security – he indicated.

As he noted: – Romania is a country that is currently very often criticized in the United States by the current administration. For example, because of the scandalous annulment of the first round of presidential elections in that country last December. It was scandalous because it happened at a moment when the voting in the second round had already begun.

When asked if a reduction in American military presence in that country was a "punishment" for that decision, he replied: - I believe so. And I am absolutely convinced that if Tusk had succeeded in a coup d'état, to use Szymon Hołownia's term, which he planned around June and July, had the inauguration of the democratically elected president not taken place, we would not be experiencing this positive American decision right now.
