Donald Trump has claimed China wouldn’t have flown a spy balloon over the United States when he was president.

When asked what he would have done if a spy balloon had been discovered during his time in the White House, Mr Trump told Sean Hannity: “I wouldn’t have done anything with the balloon because it wouldn’t have happened under me.”

The Pentagon has said that Chinese spy balloons entered US airspace three times during Mr Trump’s presidency.
