He contributed to the PEPPER V Report, developed through the Kelso Institute Europe network, by updating the Romanian country analysis on employee financial participation and profit-sharing arrangements. He regularly publishes commentary and analysis on German politics and international affairs in Romanian media, including Contributors and HotNews. He also contributed to a series of analyses on Romanian foreign policy developed by the Quartet Institute in partnership with Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung Romania.
