Does swallowing a small amount of water that rose from the stomach to the throat without control affect the validity of the fast?

If you are unable to expel what has reached the throat from the stomach, then there is no blame upon you and your fast is valid. However, if it was possible to expel it and you intentionally swallowed it, then your fast is invalidated and you must make up for it.
