China world power or not?

[Marshal Murat]

It is a superpower. Whether it's sustainable is irrelevant. A pot is a pot until it gets a hole. Then it's collinder.

[Gregoshi]

Then it's collinder.

That would strain our releationship with them for sure.

I do agree that China is a superpower. It always bothered me that after the fall of the Soviet Union, you'd here people saying that the US is the only superpower.

America is one, although has debts almost to the point of causing economic collapse, is addicted to oil from the very places it states it detests and is unable to win wars against very weak countries.

China's main deficiencies are the lack of a blue sea fleet, but it is correcting this quickly.

China is managing its explosion of economic matters better than America is managing its implosion.

Ethnic minorities? There's a fair amount of ethnic problems in America.

[Quintus.JC]

China is already a superpower. The ethic minorities will never get their indepence, the living standard there is still not as good as some of the Western countries but that does not stop them from being a Superpower, it never stopped the Soviets.
