In the last week, three unidentified flying objects have been shot down by US aircraft. Other similar balloons have also been seen in other countries, such as Colombia and Uruguay.

In a panel sponsored by CNN this Monday (13), journalist and political analyst Brian Winter and professor at Escola Superior de Propaganda e Marketing (ESPM) Alexandre Uehara debated whether flying objects influence the relationship between the United States and China.

O journalist and analyst Brian Winter assessed that the current environment is “strange”, and that “almost everyone is overreacting” at this moment.

“Ambience is strange. It seems these UFOs are the only news these two weeks with 24/7 coverage. There is even speculation about extraterrestrials, which the government has not completely ruled out. I think US-China relations are the big background for this moment right now. We don’t know all the details, but there is one of the geopolitical reasons that serve as the basis of this discussion. There is an exaggeration on the part of almost everyone,” she said.

O Professor Alexandre Uehara said that the idea of ​​espionage is now commonplace, but that a differential is the US and China’s quest to demonstrate their strength.

We know that espionage exists, the satellites are very powerful, so the areas where the missiles are are not a secret. [dos EUA]. What is different at the moment is that both the American and Chinese governments are trying to establish themselves and show strength”.
