Hey Romanians, don’t worry about it. It was just a Chinese weather balloon. They fly over our country all the time.

Romania and Spain are both NATO members, Western European aircraft routinely deploy for air defense along the eastern boundary.

--- "Romania and Spain are both NATO members, Western European aircraft routinely deploy for air defense along the eastern boundary."

One observes that whatever was the cause remains a UFO. And some time back, that Russian missile which crashed into Poland turned out to be a Ukrainian missile. Lots of confusion going on. Thankfully NATO members are working on fighting climate change and engaging in expanding into the Indo-Pacific which is so North Atlantic.

Spain is the NATO ally that rotated to Spain after the British Air Force.

“The deployment of Spanish F-18s is part of NATO’s enhanced Air Policing, a mission introduced in 2014 following Russia’s annexation of Crimea.”
