Apparently so:
The row between India and China over their disputed eastern and northern borders has been simmering for decades. But it was reignited earlier this week when senior Chinese officials publicly attacked a visit by Manmohan Singh, the Indian prime minister, to Arunachal Pradesh to campaign in its state election.
China's foreign ministry accused Mr Singh of triggering "a disturbance" in the disputed region where the border had "never [been] officially settled."
"China is strongly dissatisfied with the visit to the disputed region by the Indian leader disregarding China's serious concerns," said Ma Zhaoxu, a spokesman in Beijing.
His comments were followed by an editorial in the state-owned Global Times newspaper, which described Mr Singh's visit as a "provocative and dangerous" move aimed at putting a disputed territory under "de facto administration of India".
Wow. This is how China acts when it just anticipates being a major power with power projection capabilities. Imagine how they'll act and what they'll demand when they have actual offensive military power?
The world likes to complain about America. The world will one day discover what a true problem superpower acts like.
