The spy balloon affair has become an international mystery with venomous exchanges of accusations between Beijing and Washington. The United States, however, immediately denied any accusations by China. “Any claim that the US government operates surveillance balloons over the People’s Republic of China is false.” National Security Council spokeswoman Adrienne Watson wrote on Twitter, denying Beijing’s allegations. “It is China that has a high-altitude intelligence-gathering surveillance balloon program, which it has used to violate the sovereignty of the United States and more than 40 countries on 5 continents,” she adds.
In short, the White House denies the accusations, calling them “false”, of having repeatedly sent spy balloons into Chinese airspace. In a briefing with journalists, Beijing Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Wang Wenbin said that “since 2022, US balloons have flown over Chinese airspace at high altitudes more than ten times without the authorization of relevant Chinese authorities.” .
