" Since Last Year alone, US balloons have illegally flown above China More Than 10 times without any approval from Chinese authorities. "
" The First thing The US side should do is start with a Clean Slate , undergo some self-reflection, instead of smearing and accusing China, " he added.
He Said Beijing had responded to The incursions in a " responsible and professional" manner.

Mr Wang said he had " no understanding of [these other objects]".
" But what we want to tell everyone here is that The US' frequent firing of advanced missiles used to strike down unidentified flying objects is an overreaction of Excessive Force , " He Said .
A US military commander, General Glen VanHerck, said that there was no indication of any threat from The latest object.
He Said it could be a " gaseous type of balloon" or " some type of a propulsion system" - adding he could not rule out that The objects were extra-terrestrials.
