China's top diplomat on Saturday renewed Beijing's criticism of the United States for shooting down what Washington says was a Chinese spy balloon, arguing at a conference in Germany that the move doesn't point to U.S. strength.
Beijing insists the white orb shot down off the Carolina coast early this month was just an errant civilian airship used mainly for meteorological research that went off course due to winds and had only limited "self-steering" capabilities.
"The actions don't show that the U.S. is big and strong, but describe the exact opposite," Wang said. Wang also accused the U.S. of denying China's economic advances and seeking to impede its further development. His comments came shortly before an address to the conference by U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris, who didn't mention the balloon controversy or respond to Wang's comments but stressed the importance of upholding the "international rules-based order."
