it is not in china's interests to have more americans see in china as an enemy. and the timing is particularly bad because china, this spring, after the end of the zero covid policy, really wants to focus on its domestic development, its demographic crisis, a whole series of economic crises, and china had been looking for a sort of timeout from friction with the united states. so this appears to fly in the face of that. one possible answer is bureaucratic incompetence. did some agency of the chinese government move without getting the full sign—up? that is possible, there is incompetence there as there is here. other than that, it is sheer speculation. do they want to send a message to the people of the united states thatjust as our flights and cruise around taiwan, what china sees as its sovereign territory, threatens them, they see it as a threat, but that is sheer speculation. it really doesn't make sense that china would do something which damages its own interests right now. how important was the us secretary of state's trip, which has now been cancelled?

china has been over the horizon, and now china is right overhead. and so this is going to spread the bad china narrative that has been gaining more adherence not only here in the us but in canada, in the uk and europe. people are going to see this in a more personal way, and it is going to give a sense of urgency to those parts of the american government and military and in congress that are determined to counter and condemn and weaken china if they can, and so i think the bigger impact is that it lends more credence to that broad accusation about the nature of the chinese government. yes, it is quite interesting, isn't it? that it was visible with the naked eye so people could film it with their smartphones. if it was a spy balloon, why would they want to do something so blatant and so unnerving for the members of the public in the us, as you say? so, this is a key question. it is not in china's interests to have more americans seeing china as an enemy. and the timing is particularly bad because china, this spring, after the end of the zero—covid

china more likely to side with russia on that front, and the us doesn't want china supplying weapons to moscow. how does this affect both the dynamics there? it is very crucial issue because right now, of course, russia is suffering a lot of losses, in terms of the wounding and also the death of its soldiers, but also there is an affirmation that russia is also seeing its ammunition and weapons supply being depleted very fast, and it will definitely affect russia's capability to continue in the war and the invasion of ukraine. if china really supplied russia with for example missiles or chips that can be used in missiles and all these ammunitions and weapons, and it would definitely prolong russia's capability in engaging in the invasion, and it will be kind of quite a big factor. it is why the us and international community should concerned about it. in new zealand, the death toll from cyclone gabrielle has risen to ii, but the prime minister, chris hipkins, says that figure is bound to rise. almost 28,000 homes remain without power and as many as 6,500 remain unaccounted for. 28,00

china views it as part of itself under the one china policy, being there and seeing it functioning, and speaking to taiwanese people, you get the sense that this is absolutely not part of china. how that will be squared in the coming years, we will wait and see. i do think that's the wider context and what china does is a couple of interesting things. xi jinping publicly ticked off vladimir putin at the shanghai organisation. it showed publicly that china was not happy about the russian invasion of ukraine. i think behind—the—scenes, it is in china's interest. it has taken a huge amount of political and economic focus and it is giving china time to prepare its forces if it wanted to invade. secondly it is it has kept the pressure on taiwan. this matters because if the us is so heavily invested in ukraine and its having to put a lot of its weapon production in there just to keep ukrainian demands to match it, what does that mean if china makes a move on taiwan? that is really the big strategic problem that the us is grappling with. i think the biden administration at the moment h
