Recently, unidentified surveillance Balloons were spotted across critical regions in the U.S. and Canada. The incident immediately triggered a series of warnings and further actions. The U.S. was confident about China’s role in the incident.
Later, the U.S. spotted unidentified flying objects taken down by the nation. These UFOs were suspected to be related to the balloon incident.
As per the latest information, President Biden has said the UFOs spotted over the nation are not linked to China or the Surveillance Bloons incident.

Further, the UFOs were most likely connected to private businesses or related to recreation or scientific research.
“Nothing right now suggests they’re related to China’s spy balloon program. But make no mistake, if any object threatens the safety and security of the American people. I will take it down. The U.S. would “continue to engage with China, as we have throughout the past few weeks,” says Biden.
According to American military authorities, it may take weeks to retrieve all the debris before they can determine what they shot down.

The U.S. followed what it thought was a Chinese balloon across North America earlier this month, shooting it down once it got into open seas off the Carolinas.
After that, further objects were taken down over Alaska, Canada, and Lake Huron.
“The intelligence community’s current assessment is that these three objects were most likely balloons tied to private companies, recreation or research institutions studying weather, or conducting other scientific research,” adds Biden.
