Powell Expresses Regret for Loss of Life Chinese Pilot
The United States Secretary of State Colin Powell has expressed regret over the death of the Chinese pilot killed when his fighter was in a collision with a US spy plane on Sunday.
Secretary of State Colin Powell said efforts at dialogue continued amid the four-day standoff over the spy plane and its crew. The plane collided with a Chinese jet fighter Sunday, whose pilot is missing and presumed dead in the South China Sea.
"We regret the Chinese pilot did not get down safely, and we regret the loss of life of that Chinese pilot," Powell said.
