The US shot down a Chinese balloon
- The United States shot down a Chinese reconnaissance balloon over its territory. This was not done immediately, because, according to President Joe Biden, they were waiting for the moment. The ball was “landed” off the coast of South Carolina with the help of an F-22 fighter that fired an Aim-9X Sidewinder missile. The so-called spy exploded, and the contents of the ball fell.
- The discovery of the bullet provoked tension between Washington and Beijing, in particular, Secretary of State Anthony Blinken postponed his visit to China indefinitely.
- At the same time, Secretary of State Anthony Blinken postponed his visit to China. Beijing expressed outrage at Washington's actions. The Chinese Foreign Ministry assured that the airship is intended for civilian use. It is said that the Americans were warned about its use, but the bullet hit the United States due to “force majeure”.
- According to the State Department and the White House, China uses a fleet of balloons to spy on countries on 5 continents. We are talking about 40 countries. Joe Biden has already had conversations with allies about this.
- However, the story did not end there – on February 10, the United States shot down an unknown object over Alaska. Now experts are looking for the wreckage to study. It is not yet known who owns this object and what was its purpose.
