Reportedly, Blinken has postponed a visit to China that was supposed to start on Friday evening, after the discovery of an unidentified balloon in the US skies.
A Pentagon spokesman said earlier that a reconnaissance balloon had been spotted over the United States. He flew from the Aleutian Islands through the territory of Canada and reached the state of Montana. The balloon’s movements are tracked by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). The US military believes the balloon belongs to China.
