President Trump encouraged Polish Defense Minister Władysław Kusniak-Kamisz to leave Poland's ruling coalition and cooperate with far-right political forces during a private meeting in Washington earlier this year, according to The Atlantic. Trump suggested that such a move would strengthen the ministers standing by Washington.
