China slammed the United States for interfering in its border dispute with India, after Washington said it recognized the disputed Arunachal Pradesh as a part of Indian territory.
China, which refers to the territory as Zangnan, claims Arunachal Pradesh is part of southern Tibet.
India rejects those claims, stating Arunachal Pradesh has always been a part of India.
Kugelman pointed out that the U.S. typically refrains from commenting on some Indian border disputes, such as the one with Pakistan over Kashmir.
