This feels like a page from the “Chinese spy balloon” handbook. Crank up the propaganda and fear-mongering to max at the start, and then slowly ratchet down after everyone’s already lost interest and the damage has been done. Six months from now I wouldn’t be surprised if a report from the Dutch government was quietly released that actually spoke the truth about what happened.

God I hate that balloon thing. People are still convinced they were spy balloons. I hate it I hate it I hate it
People are also convinced China is stuck in the 1950’s and that everybody there struggles to eat.
