I love how you guys resort to personal attacks after only 2 posts.
Also did we make the Indian President say that India was a superpower in 2012? Nope. He said it on his own.
On the other hand, we are only a developing country, if you divide $11 trillion by a population of over 1+ billion you'll see we have a very low per capita income, not enough to be classified as a developed country, let alone a superpower.
Hmm, is that why Modi came to China and begged us to let them into the P5?
Your leaders have a history of begging to first the Soviet Union and then backstabbing them and then going to USA every year to beg . Who is the ultimate beggar????
There are zillions of links all over the internet for this. Of course, you will not admit the facts true to your typical nature.
China’s secret plan to topple the US as the world’s superpower | New York Post
Since the 1960s, noting that contrary to popular belief, President Richard Nixon’s opening to China in the ’70s was initiated by China, not the US.
During early meetings between Mao and Nixon, Mao pushed for the two countries to work together against the Soviet threat, with Mao urging the US to “create an anti-Soviet axis that would include Europe, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, and Japan.”

Meeting with President Jimmy Carter in 1978, Deng arranged for what would become 19,000 Chinese science students to study here, and Deng and Carter reached an agreement for the US to provide China with “the greatest outpouring of American scientific and technological expertise in history.”
Under President Ronald Reagan, for whom Pillsbury served as a foreign policy adviser, the Pentagon agreed to “sell advanced air, ground, naval and missile technology to the Chinese to transform the People’s Liberation Army into a world-class fighting force,” later including “nuclear cooperation and development . . . to expand China’s military and civilian nuclear programs.” Reagan also assisted in China’s development of industries such as “intelligent robotics, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, lasers, supercomputers, space technology and manned spaceflight.”
“Before long,” Pillsbury writes, “the Chinese had made significant progress on more than 10,000 projects, all heavily dependent on Western assistance and all crucial to China’s Marathon strategy.” Similar assistance has continued to this day.
Uh... alright then?
We in India and all over the world can criticize irrational statements made by our leaders but can you in China do so?? What will happen to the family members, your supporters and loved ones if you do so?
