1:02 am
triggering a diplomatic rao that has prompted us secretary of state anti blinkin to postpone his weekend trip to beijing is an irresponsible act. and that the p r c decision to take this action on these, my plan visit is detrimental to the subset of discussions that we were prepared to have. the u. s. is accusing china, a violating international law. the balloon is still hovering over the skies of the united states. it was 1st tracked over the aleutian islands near alaska, and travelled through western canada and into the u. s. state of montana where it was spotted near a military installation home to some of america's nuclear missiles. i have no idea what the thing is. it seems so brazen and just so insane to me that that anyone would even attempt to just push
1:03 am
a balloon over the sky. the chinese foreign ministry acknowledged ownership of the balloon and expressed regret for the incident, but said it was merely collecting weather data, not intelligently. the pentagon has its doubts. still, it says the balloon is not a threat to any one on the ground or plains since it's flying well above commercial air traffic. but there are questions about why the pentagon is allowing the chinese surveillance balloon to linger, looking at the potential for debris and the impact on civilians on the ground or property damage right now, as i mentioned we, we assessed it, it does not pose a risk to people on the ground as it currently is traversing the continental united states. that hasn't satisfied biden's critics and congress who believe the us needs to take further action to punish china. can't reward the ccp for this kind of fly
1:04 am
in violation of her sovereignty by pretending everything his businesses normal. anna a griffin grin, session was, she's in pain as if it was happening. would have been a terrible look for us diplomacy. the ccp will continue to push the envelope until we push back. this isn't the 1st time the china has lives to spy balloon over the united states. the pentagon says that in recent years, surveillance balloons have been spotted over guam and hawaii. but in the case of this current balloon, the pentagon won't say whether or not it eventually will be shot down, only that it's expected to drift over the united states for the next couple of days . kimberly help get al jazeera, the white house. let's cross live now t washington, d c m rose jordan. hi, there ross at what does this mean then from already for already terse us china relations? well, that's a really good question and it depends on whom you ask. there are some who have
1:05 am
argued that if the trip had gone ahead and the secretary of state had met with a number of high level officials, including perhaps the chinese president seizure in paying this would have been, in fact, a start of a perhaps warmer relationship between washington and bay ging some have argued however that could have been construed as an endorsement for b ging to continue its policies for its part. the bind administration has argued that it is going to engage with a china where it needs to. it's going to compete with china in other areas, and that it will work alongside china, on some commonly shared concerns and goals. so the u. s. has already been walking a very fine line in terms of how it calibrate it's relationship with beijing. but certainly the u. s has its ongoing concerns with china's human rights record, with its attempts to expand its had gemini and its influence in the asia pacific
1:06 am
ram, not just out economically, but militarily as well. and it has concerns about china's efforts to undermine a democratic of processes in other countries, establishing relationships that might not be productive to american goals. and so this is a moment where the u. s. has a basically said, we're going to stop where we are and that as the administration deals with this a matter of this surveillance balloon, then it will decide at what point perhaps later and 2023 when the secretary of state antony blank and can return to beijing, for those talks that i had been agreed upon by, she's been paying and joe biden at last year's conference in southeast asia was showing that a stair live from washington dc. well, thank you. ah,
