China could take ‘provocative’ action after U.S. shot down spy balloon, Stavridis says

The U.S. should prepare for a “provocative” response from China after Navy pilots shot down the Chinese spy balloon Saturday, according to former NATO Supreme Allied Commander James Stavridis. “I would say to our aviators, our mariners who are forward and close to China, now is a good time to be very, very alert,” Stavridis said.
