Viorel Mionel

Viorel Mionel is a university lecturer at the Bucharest University of Economic Studies (ASE) who has recently gained attention for his analysis of drone incidents in Romanian airspace, particularly in relation to Russia's military tactics. His work emphasizes a concerning pattern of repeated violations of Romanian airspace by Russian drones, suggesting a deliberate strategy to test NATO's eastern flank. Mionel's insights highlight the increasing frequency and severity of these incidents, culminating in a serious drone attack in Galați, which has raised alarms about Romania's military and political readiness to respond to such threats.
