Professor
Ioan Mircea PAȘCUFormer Vice-president of the European Parliament and Chairman of the BSC Advisory Board at #BSC2018
“Our security environment has deteriorated and it does that at an exponential pace. Probably we were not paying enough attention to a number of threats and we are confronted not with linear developments, but rather with a series of breakthroughs”
Mr. Pascu will have an opening speech at the 2020 edition of the Bucharest Security Conference.
