Balloon Shot Down over US Continues to cause Tensions between Superpowers

Row between Washington DC and Beijing over the Chinese Spy Balloon

The row between Washington DC and Beijing over the Chinese spy balloon has sent relations between the two countries into a tail spin. The balloon spent five days crossing the United States before it was shot down at Myrtle Beach in South Carolina by a US airforce jet. Ahead of the balloon incident China had been attempting to improve ties with the US.

The US Navy has retrieved some of the wreckage of the balloon from the sea off South Carolina. Beijing has said it wants it back but Washington plans to have it examined by its secret services.
