Ţoiu noted that Romania's diplomatic protest to the Russian Federation will be based on the results of investigations into the drone intrusions.
"It is unacceptable and intolerable for the Russian Federation to continue violating Romania's airspace, which is also the airspace of NATO and the European Union. Such actions are unacceptable, and we treat them with the utmost seriousness together with our allies," the statement reads.
"In connection with these repeated violations, the ambassador of the Russian Federation was summoned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Romania," Ţoiu added.
