Roumanie — Dossier militaire

MBB · 58/100 — La note Magna est notre composite 0–100 de la puissance nationale structurelle — cinq dimensions, plus de 100 indicateurs. C'est l'évaluation propre du Bureau, pas un miroir des chiffres de la Banque mondiale ou de la CIA.

Momentum 0 — Momentum trimestriel : la lecture du Bureau sur la trajectoire du pays au dernier trimestre, de −10 (dégradation rapide) à +10 (accélération).

La stabilité a été le trait marquant du trimestre : ni rupture, ni aubaine, ni surprise assez forte pour faire bouger le score.

La trajectoire reste fixée par des fondamentaux qui évoluent sur des années, pas des trimestres — et ce trimestre a peu changé.
