The US president Joe Biden spoke for eight minutes at the Eisenhower executive office building on Thursday after Republicans and some Democrats expressed concerns that his unwillingness to comment on the unknown object issue shot down could allow conspiracy theories to thrive.
He
revealed some information about the unknown aerial objects shot down over North
America during the past week, assessing they were “most likely” operated by
private companies or research institutions rather than China.
The
president’s tentative conclusion is likely to fuel criticism that his orders to
take down the objects were an overreaction amid political pressure over the
discovery of a suspected Chinese spy balloon that transited much of the
country.
The US
president Joe Biden said,
“We don’t
yet know exactly what these three objects were but nothing right now suggests
they were related to China’s spy balloon program or that they were surveillance
vehicles from any other country,” the president told reporters, against a
backdrop of flags and the presidential seal.
