China's flight of a suspected surveillance balloon over the United States appears to mark a more aggressive - albeit puzzling - espionage tactic than relying on satellites and the theft of industrial and defense secrets, security experts said.
China said the balloon was for civilian meteorological and scientific purposes that strayed into U.S. airspace, on Saturdayof taking advantage of the situation to discredit China. It has previously rebuffed accusations of espionage and said the United States holds a Cold War mentality and hypes up the 'China threat.'
Mike Rounds, a Republican member of the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee, told Fox News it would be good to recover the balloon to see "if it was designed to actually collect data or if it was designed to test our response capabilities." Adding to the questions on Friday night, a Pentagon statement said another Chinese balloon was observed over Latin America.that the greatest long-term threat to U.S. information and intellectual property was "the counterintelligence and economic espionage threat from China."
"The problem with China is far more in the academic, scientific world," said Mark Zaid, a Washington lawyer who is involved in various national security cases.
