Continental US airspace is massive and incredibly expensive to secure. Just look at the challenges the USSR faced during the Cold War. If US enemies can instill a multi-directional threat towards the North American continent and force massive buildup of AA there (to protect from, say, missiles in Cuba), they'll bleed out US defense resources easily. Attack from the North is difficult with Canada as a buffer, but plenty of states to threaten national security from the US South and Southeast.

It's the Americans that wanted a discussion. China should make clear its reasonable terms, if nothing else, just to force Americans to reject it and exposing them for creating a nuclear arms race.
What Russia does is in theory Russia's own concern, but if there is a preliminary agreement reached to downsize oversized nuclear arsenals, then China can surely make the Kremlin also gradually go down to a nuclear cap of 1500.
That is an American political problem.
That is an American PR problem.
The reason why President Trump got elected in the first place.
The fake news US media and the feckless US politicians that feed it.
If the balloon had explosives, best to shoot it down immediately than to let it pick any target it wanted to.
This is the problem I feel, and why it is more annoying to Americans than people like me outside of America.
The American politician and their media, think of China as second rate, and kind of dumb. American politician and their media, think of Americans are even lower than that, that they will believe anything.
They elected Trump, out of frustration. Then they elected a senile guy.
There is nothing worth discusing with the US at this point in their history. They flip flop more than a pancake on any matter depending on who's ruling
The only thing they agree on is on shitting on treaties and threatening "allies".

And we all know what will happen.
Western Media Headlines: GYNA REJECTS PEACEFUL OFFER FROM THE US TO DENUCLEARIZE. WORLD HEADING TOWARDS NUCLEAR WAR BY 2025 BECAUSE OF GYNA.
Then you guys are going to complain for the next 50 pages about why did China even bother going in the first place and how terrible the PR department is.
I don’t think the issue is trying to convince the Russians to have a 1500 nuclear cap. It’s convincing the Americans they should accept a 1500 cap. They are not going to accept allowing the Russians and Chinese to have more nuclear warheads combined than them.

Even the senior vice president of CSIS doesn't think it makes much sense for China to use a balloon for spying.
In some aspects, China is 10x greater than Japan in scale. Now you understand why the US is in such a hurry to manufacture anti-China consent.
How to manufacture anti-China consent:
It's about time for KMT to visit mainland China again.
How Western projection distorts the reality of China's trade with African nations:
Our nature disasters vs theirs - how some Western MSM report nature disasters:
This will surely ruffle some feathers in S. Korea.
