It was still caught as a spying machine flying over the US
"While the balloon was, the Pentagon said, "travelling at an altitude well above commercial air traffic" and did "not present a military or physical threat to people on the ground", its presence sparked outrage.
On Friday, China finally acknowledged the balloon was its property, saying that it was a civilian airship used for meteorological research, which deviated from its route because of bad weather."
And I tend to believe the worst case scenario when it comes to these countries. The USA also didn't mind because it seemed to want the visit that was planned today got cancelled.
Thats what happen in a unipolar world.
