.SecretaryPete Buttigieg argues Chinese spy balloon was 'handled appropriately'
Buttigieg pointed to the debris field that formed after the device was shot down by a U.S. fighter jet Saturday and contended that the military took appropriate precautions to ensure minimal harm to civilians."The President called for this to be dealt with in a way that balanced all of the different risks. That's exactly what happened. Military did a terrific job," Buttigieg said on CNN's State of the Union.
Many have speculated that the balloon flew over sensitive military infrastructure including nuclear missile silos to collect intelligence for China. "The US has made clear this is an unacceptable intrusion into American sovereignty. And I think you can expect that any further developments will be appropriate in response to what happened," Buttigieg added.
