“We shot it down because it needed to be shot down, because we were confident that it was used by China to spy on the American people,” VP Harris told NBCNews on the suspected Chinese spy balloon.
MUNICH — Vice President Kamala Harris on Friday addressed concerns about the decision by President Joe Biden to shoot down the alleged Chinese spy balloon, which landed in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of South Carolina earlier this month.
"As it relates to the Chinese balloon, we shot it down because it needed to be shot down, because we were confident that it was used by China to spy on the American people," Harris said in Germany, where she is attending the Munich Security Conference. The vice president also repeatedthat the administration wants to sharpen the rules to address unidentified objects and help institute global standards on the issue.
