US Secretary of State Antony Blinken earlier wrapped the latest iteration of diplomatic talks with Chinese officials, marking the first such talks in China since 2018. The visit was initially scheduled for February but was postponed once US-China relations soured after the downing of a commercial Chinese balloon that blew off course.

The comments were made by Biden while speaking to the downed Chinese balloon fallout that unfolded in February and continued to steal headlines as additional balloon-like objects began to emerge near American skies."The reason why Xi Jinping got very upset, in terms of when I shot that balloon down with two box cars full of spy equipment in it, was he didn't know it was there," Biden claimed. Biden's claims do not fully meet the statements made by the Chinese Foreign Ministry: "The situation with the Chinese balloon over the territory of the United States is an incident caused by force majeure, the facts are extremely clear." China also explained that the object was in fact a high-altitude civilian scientific balloon that was blown off course.
