China knows that Biden and has gang of commies are nothing but a bunch of paper tigers. That’s why they refused to apologize for sending their spy balloon over this country for eight days when Blinken demanded one in Munich.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken shared the blunt assessment after meeting on Saturday with China’s head diplomat, Wang Yi, on the sidelines of the annual Munich Security Conference.
“I don’t want to characterize what he said. I don’t think that would be appropriate. Although I can tell you, no, there was no apology,” Blinken said during an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that aired Sunday.
The U.S. Air Force shot down the high-flying balloon off the coast of South Carolina a little more than two weeks ago, but not before the vessel transited a wide swath of the U.S. from Montana to the southeastern coast, including past sensitive military sites. U.S. officials said the military waited to down the balloon until it floated over the Atlantic Ocean because falling debris posed a threat to people below. They also said steps were taken to prevent China from gathering valuable intelligence.
Beijing claims the balloon was essentially a civilian weather balloon mainly blown off course, and accused the U.S. of overreacting with the shoot-down. In retaliation, the U.S. blacklisted six Chinese entities tied to Beijing’s military aerospace programs, after which China levied sanctions on two major U.S. defense contractors.
