Wallace told the Telegraph newspaper that the UK and its allies would review the threat that these airspace incursions pose to our security.
Defense Secretary Ben Wallace said Britain would review its security after a suspected Chinese surveillance balloon invaded US airspace earlier this month. The United States shot down the balloon that he said was being used to spy on him. Since then, security forces have shot down three more flying objects in North America. Beijing has said it was a weather balloon blown off course and accused the United States of overreacting.
Wallace told the Telegraph newspaper that the UK and its allies would review the threat that these airspace incursions pose to our security. Incidents like this are another sign of how the global threat landscape is changing for the worse. The Telegraph reported that the safety review will be used to help decide whether changes to the monitoring of British airspace are necessary.
The spectacle of Chinese balloons drifting over the United States sparked political outrage in Washington and focused attention on China’s challenge to the United States and its allies. When asked on Sky News on Monday if it was possible Chinese spy balloons had already been used in the UK, Richard Holden replied yes.
