Also because of upcoming talks between the US and China on easing Taiwan tensions.
These won't be off to a good start if they'd shoot down something Chinese now.
- stjohnswarts 4y agoIt should be shot down if the Chinese won't be up front about what it is and why it's here and continue to deny that it's theirs.
- blinding-streak 4y agoThey're already off to a bad start with the Chinese surveillance balloon hovering over the US in the first place. Incredibly awkward. This kind of thing is not normal. That's why it's front page news. Well within rights to shoot it down or render it inoperable.
