Una llamada de atención. Así es como muchos se refieren al episodio del globo espía chino. Estados Unidos ya informó a 40 países de sus conclusiones sobre el aparato.
China sostiene que el globo era una nave civil que se desvió de su ruta mientras estudiaba el clima.
Pero el Pentágono afirma que no se trataba en absoluto de un globo meteorológico y que, de hecho, tenía capacidad de vigilancia.
Tras la reunión informativa con otros países, ¿estamos asistiendo a la formación de una nueva fuerza aliada? ¿Y acaso estamos frente a un cambio de las relaciones globales con China?

A wake-up call This is how many refer to the Chinese spy balloon incident
The United States has already informed 40 countries of its findings regarding the device
China claims that the balloon was a civilian aircraft that deviated from its course while studying the weather
But the Pentagon claims it was not at all a weather balloon and actually had surveillance capabilities
Are we witnessing the formation of a new allied force after the information meeting with other countries
Are we witnessing a shift in global relations with China
Welcome to China in Focus My name is Julián Bertone
The United States shared information with 40 countries about the Chinese spy balloon shot down on Saturday
The balloon crossed Canada and the United States before being shot down by an American fighter jet
In an unusual move the top U S diplomat and the secretary of the world's largest military alliance
They appeared together at a press conference where they urged countries to remain vigilant
Let's look at the latest details on this topic
The U S Secretary of State Anthony Blinken stated on Wednesday that the United States
She shared the information she obtained about the Chinese spy balloon with dozens of countries around the world
The information according to the United States shows that it was not a weather balloon
As Beijing has been asserting but rather from an aircraft used for espionage
The United States held informational meetings in Washington and Beijing at the start of this week
about the balloon that was shot down off the coast of South Carolina over the weekend
He presented his conclusions to approximately 150 foreign diplomats
Blinken who postponed a visit to China due to the incident stated
that the Chinese spy balloons also flew over other countries
The NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg was at the press conference with Blinken
Who said that the incident confirmed a pattern of behavior exhibited by China
The Pentagon stated on Wednesday that four previous Chinese spy balloons had flown over the United States
But spokesperson Patrick Ryder refused to give more details
Ryder said that U S Navy vessels continued to recover the remains of the Chinese spy balloon
A U S official said it was six meters tall with a low payload weighing nearly a thousand kilograms
Following the incident involving the Chinese surveillance balloon over the United States
A new focus of attention emerged in Washington analyzing the capabilities and threats posed by this type of vessel
Paul Crespo a former U S Navy captain says the Chinese regime could send high-altitude balloons over the United States
And could transport dangerous cargo such as small electromagnetic pulse or EMP devices
And the China expert Frank Gaffney explained the following
Crespo says that if energy and communications were cut off in the United
States this could cause as he put it widespread damage over the next few months
The retired Colonel John Mills added the following
Electromagnetic pulses or EMPs are bursts of electromagnetic energy that disrupt communications and damage electrical equipment
Electromagnetic pulses can be generated by nuclear missiles radio frequency weapons and natural phenomena such as geomagnetic storms
Chinese spy balloons are feared to be used to prepare an electromagnetic attack against US nuclear facilities
The balloon flew over some of the most sensitive military sites in the United States vital to the nuclear capability
Among these locations is the Malstorm Air Force Base in Montana
It oversees 150 intercontinental ballistic missile silos with nuclear capability
Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska the headquarters of the United States Strategic Command
And the Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri which operates the Air Force's B-12 bomber
A truly important performance for each of us
This is what you've been waiting for
See it at least once in your life
Shen Yun
Every year a completely new show
Continuing with reports on the functions that this type of balloon serves in the Chinese regime's war
Let's now look at a test conducted by China in 2018
Images show a high-altitude balloon similar to the previous one but with three hypersonic missiles launched as part of the tests
China's state broadcaster CCTV reported on the weapons test in 2018
Showing a balloon lifting 13 hypersonic glide vehicles or HGVs from the ground
HGVs are generally launched by rockets
Once in orbit they can fly themselves through the atmosphere
According to Chinese media the HGVs launched from balloons are part of an effor
To test the free-fall process of the weapon to develop precision hypersonic warheads
The United States Australia and the United Kingdom began joint exercises on American soil
The maneuvers are focused on countering the Chinese communist regime
The three-week exercises began on Wednesday and simulate high-level combat operations
against Chinese air defenses and bases
Joint air exercises over the Nevada desert and beyond
They aim to prepare house pilots for the challenges they would face in a conflict with China
Training takes into account the vast distances that the United States Australia and the
United Kingdom would have to travel to operate across the Pacific
The Pentagon has expressed growing concern in recent years over the increasing
pressure from the Chinese Communist Party or CCP on Taiwan
The PSC considers the island as a separatist province and the U S
government identified China as its main strategic military priority
That is despite spending billions of dollars to support Ukraine against Russia
The CIA director William Burns warned last week that the United States knew
as a matter of intelligence the leader of the PSC Xi Jinping
He ordered his military to be ready to carry out an invasion of Taiwan in 2027
Australia announced plans to remove Chinese-made cameras used in offices
of its defense department The decision
is due to national security reasons
And this is what the Australian Minister of Defense said on the matter
The move comes after Britain decided in November to stop installing
surveillance cameras linked to China in sensitive buildings
Some U S states also banned suppliers and products from several Chinese technology companies
In Australia the cameras are from Hibision and Dahua companies both linked to the PSC
These two companies are on the US government's blacklis
o contribute to the genocide and repression of the Uyghurs in the Xinjiang region
According to an audit there are more than 900 Chinese-made cameras in 250 buildings
Among them are Australia's departments of defense foreign affairs and finance
According to Chinese law all companies based in China
They are required to provide information if the regime requests it
New protests erupted in China this time in Wuhan These
are people opposing drastic cuts in their medical coverage
Despite the rainy weather tens of thousands of retirees demonstrated in front of the city hall
Videos show protesters gathered around the government building holding umbrellas
While the police form a barrier to prevent their entry
The Wuhan authorities introduced a new health assistance policy this month
As a result medical subsidies for retirees dropped from 260 yuan to 83 yuan per month
The amount is equivalent to about 12 dollars less than a third of the original
The cut comes amid a widespread outbreak of COVID-19 in the country
And facing an increase in healthcare
costs many retirees have difficulty paying
A citizen said the measure affects nearly 12 million people
Retirees often take medication for minor illnesses
The original subsidy of 260 yuan was barely enough to cover this expense
Now 80 yuans are not enough to buy even a single medicine
A human rights activist explained why the authorities pushed for the change
After nearly three years of mass testing and the zero-
COVID policy local governments are running out of money
That's why they introduced this so-called health reform
According to Radio Free Asia the protesters plan to hold another gathering next Wednesday

Local witness testimonies shed light on COVID-19 deaths in rural China
And how many of them go unnoticed
A native of Shandong shared what he learned while he was in his hometown
For the Lunar New Year holiday
He said more than 50 people died in his village last year
And twelve others died during New Year
That translates to an impressive average of almost one death per week
The ages of the deceased range from 50 years to 80 or 90
The source also pointed out another issue
Most young people in the village travel
to larger cities
to work which means many are unaware of the situation in their homes And he gave another example
A few years ago an elderly man died of COVID-19 but the
authorities demanded that the news of his death be kept secret
His funeral was held in silence and friends and family were not informed
Meanwhile in a city in Xilin Province
A woman revealed that during the outbreak about 12
deaths were occurring each day in a local hospital
But even the nearby residents were unaware of the severity of the situation
And Shen Yun Performing Arts closed a series of performances in the Dominican Republic
with a full house
Let's see the comments from the audience who attended the last performance
at the Gran Teatro del Cibao in the city of Santiago
After seven performances in six days Shen Yun concluded its tour of the Dominican Republic
Just like in previous days
The audience filled theater for the last performance and did not hold back praise for the artists
Well there have been too many emotions
I understand that it has been an incredible show
I was quite surprised by the coordination
It's an impressive thing
How can they coordinate those movements in unison
That is what has impressed me the most
And the beauty of the dancers the formal perfection
the balance of the movements the aesthetic quality of the music
I particularly was impressed by the highly modern technological resource
that allows the virtual stage to integrate with the real bodies of the dancers
Shen Yun is a New York-based company dedicated to reviving
traditional Chinese culture through dance and music
With more than 20 dancers on stage and a live
orchestra it tells stories of ancient and modern China
With an impressive staging and a powerful message
Convey a beautiful message through dances through dance
but at the same time a message of hope and faith that
great changes can be achieved through theater and culture
The show also includes lyric singers who use
the genuine classical bel canto technique
And all the music from the compositions for
the dances to the songs is original by Shen Yun
Notice that I was impressed by how it was filled with spirituality
The soprano who sang a tribute a worship to God
That was impressive
The soprano's part the pianist's part
all this musical part the orchestra really in the art
Including God in art was impressive to me
I was really amazed
because the performance was masterful wasn't it
Truly one feels a sense of satisfaction when seeing the assembly
Those demonstrations of that dance and that technology right
And also the professionalism of those guys young men right
But they are truly professionals
That is we really feel proud and grateful here in the Cibao
That you have brought such an
exceptional performance to our little
homeland Santiago Reporting from the Dominican Republic NTD News
And that's all for today on China in Focus
