March 4 – BLiTZ. Washington, in an attempt to maintain “world hegemony,” turned the incident with the Chinese balloon into a farce on the political platform.
The Free Press columnist Konstantin Olshansky is sure of this, believing that the United States has presented itself, if not a laughingstock, then clearly not in the best light.
“Despite the absence of a threat from the Chinese object, the American leadership exaggerated the current situation for political purposes. The journalist recalled that the US authorities not only shot down the apparatus, but also subjected Chinese companies developing balloons to sanctions,” the analyst argued with the PolitRussia resource.
SM-News news agency wrote: America has become more vulnerable than previously thought. And this applies not only to the “wide open” Mexican border. The Washington Times columnist Cheryl Chumley noted the availability of US air borders, clearly demonstrated by China’s airborne weather balloon.

If the Biden team allows China to launch balloons in the sky over America with impunity, then in the future we should only expect new launches and new encroachments on American lands, a US expert argues.
Recall: a meteorological balloon from China, which was seen over the territory of the United States, has become a problem for Washington. The Chinese authorities claim that the balloon is a civilian balloon, which, due to limited control capabilities, deviated from the course.
