Romania’s Constitutional Court to consider far-right complaint against law allowing country to shoot down Russian drones
On March 27, the Romanian Constitutional Court is considering complaints from the Alliance for the Unification of Romanians, the Youth Party, and SOS Romania regarding a law that simplified the procedure for shooting down Russian drones that fly into the country.
According to Censor.NET, this was reported by Digi24.
In particular, the law stipulates that drones that illegally cross the Romanian state border and fly in the national airspace without permission can be destroyed, neutralized, or taken under control. The law was adopted after a series of incidents in which Russian attack drones used to attack the south of Ukraine's Odesa region flew into Romanian territory.
The far-right also challenged the law on the regulation of military missions/operations on national territory in peacetime.
As a reminder, the former Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and current Ambassador of Ukraine to the UK, Valerii Zaluzhnyi, said the day before that Romania asked the Ukrainian side not to talk about the downing of Russian drones on its territory.
