MIAMI – February 9, 2023 – President Joe Biden spoke with Noticias Telemundo anchor Julio Vaqueiro today in an exclusive, wide-ranging interview.

In response to a question whether the China spy balloon represented a major security breach, President Biden said: “It’s not a major breach. Look, the total amount of intelligence gathering that’s going on by every country around the world is overwhelming. I mean, it’s a violation of international law. It’s our airspace. And once it comes into our space, we can do what we want with it.”
When asked whether there would be a difference between facing former President Trump or Gov. DeSantis if he decides to run for reelection, Biden said: “No, I don’t think so, because I think that they have a similar modus operandi, a similar way in which they work.”
