Washington Today (2-16-23): President Biden says latest sky objects likely not Chinese spy crafts

President Joe Biden says the shooting down of a Chinese surveillance balloon after it flew over the U.S. "sent a clear message that the violation of our sovereignty is unacceptable", and while the U.S. is "not looking for a new cold War" with China, he makes no apologies for taking down the Chinese balloon and will remain in communication with President Xi Jingping.

President also says of other three aerial objects shot down recently, we do not know exactly what they are, nut nothing suggests they are related to the Chinese balloon program.

And the President says there is no evidence that there has been a sudden increase in the number of objects in the sky.
