Lawmakers have grown increasingly critical of Biden's reticence as the mystery around the objects has deepened. There are no plans as yet for Biden to deliver a national address.
as the administration works to recover wreckage from the downing of a Chinese spy balloon off South Carolina on Feb. 4, as well as debris from the three still-unidentified objects shot down in the days that followed.. There are no plans as yet for Biden to deliver a national address, as past presidents have done in moments of national disquiet and apprehension.Reporters have been pressing Biden for answers about the unusual specter of U.S.
The goal of the governmental review, which the White House announced Monday, is to bring military and civilian stakeholders together to determine what the proliferation of airborne objects means for national security interests and the safety of air travel and to develop protocols to deal with future unidentified aircraft.
The White House plans to give Congress a classified briefing about new standards that will be used when such objects are confronted in U.S. skies, a person familiar with the matter said. A White House official said that there are “active conversations” about the right moment for Biden to address it publicly — and that the consensus among his team has been to wait for more information.
Asked whether Biden may speak out, Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House press secretary, said at a briefing Tuesday: “I don’t have anything to read out on the president speaking to this. What I can tell you is the president takes this very seriously.”Delivering a presidential address before the White House has a full command of the facts poses clear risks. One would be needlessly alarming the public; the other would be leaving it with a false sense of security.
