The Follies of US
“Containment Policy’’

International news has been dominated of late by a high-pitched acrimony between Washington and Beijing.  The purported trigger-point was the rather massive unmanned airship or Balloon from China that floated over US airspace at over 60,000ft. for a number of days. The Chinese side maintained from the outset that the airship was a “civilian aircraft with limited self-steering capability that entered US airspace unintentionally due to force majeure”.Beijing further underlined that the Balloon and its payload were exclusively “designed for meteorological data collection and research with no sinister military capability or threat” against the national security of any country.However, the interpretations and perspectives of Washington – at least in terms of what was officially conveyed to the public – was widely at variance with these assertions.
