Na Medea Benjamin lāua ʻo Nicolas JS Davies, ʻO CODEPINK, Fepeluali 28, 2022
Ke kūʻē wiwo ʻole nei ka poʻe pale o Ukraine i ka huhū Lūkini, e hoʻohilahila i ke koena o ka honua a me ka UN Security Council no ka pale ʻole ʻana iā lākou. He hōʻailona hōʻeuʻeu ia o nā Lūkini a me Ukrainians mālama kamaʻilio ʻana ma Belarus hiki ke alakaʻi i kahi hoʻomaha. Pono e hoʻoikaika i ka hoʻopau ʻana i kēia kaua ma mua o ka pepehi ʻana o ka mīkini kaua Lūkini i mau tausani o nā mea pale a me nā makaʻāinana o Ukraine, a hoʻoikaika i nā haneli haneli hou aku e holo.
Akā aia kahi ʻoiaʻiʻo hoʻopunipuni e hana ana ma lalo o ka ʻili o kēia pāʻani moʻomeheu maʻamau, a ʻo ia ke kuleana o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a me NATO i ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana i ke kahua no kēia pilikia.
Ua kapa ʻo Pelekikena Biden i ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana o Rusia "ʻaʻohe hana," akā, mamao loa ia mai ka ʻoiaʻiʻo. I nā lā ʻehā a hiki i ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana, nā mākaʻikaʻi o ke ahi mai ka Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) palapalaʻia he piʻi weliweli i ka hoʻopau ʻana i ke ahi ma Eastern Ukraine, me 5,667 mau hewa a me 4,093 pahū.
Aia ka hapa nui i loko o nā palena de facto o ka Donetsk (DPR) a me Luhansk (LPR) People's Republics, i kūlike me nā pūʻali koa aupuni o Ukraine. Me kokoke 700 Ke nānā nei ʻo OSCE ceasefire ma ka ʻāina, ʻaʻole hiki ke hilinaʻi ʻia he mau "hae wahaheʻe" kēia i hana ʻia e nā pūʻali kaʻawale, e like me ka ʻōlelo a nā luna US a me Pelekane.
Inā paha he piʻi hou aʻe ke ahi i loko o ke kaua kīwila lōʻihi a i ʻole ka wehe ʻana o kahi hoʻouka kaua aupuni hou, ʻoiaʻiʻo he mea hoʻonāukiuki. Akā ua ʻoi aku ka nui o ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana o Rūsia ma mua o nā hana like ʻole e pale aku i ka DPR a me LPR mai kēlā mau hoʻouka ʻana, e hana ʻole ʻia a me ke kānāwai.
I loko o ka pōʻaiapili nui aʻe, ua lilo ʻo Ukraine i mea hōʻeha ʻole a me ka mea koho i ke kaua hou ʻana o US Cold War e kūʻē iā Rūsia a me Kina, kahi i hoʻopuni ai ʻo ʻAmelika i nā ʻāina ʻelua me nā pūʻali koa a me nā mea kaua ʻino, ua hoʻihoʻi ʻia mai kahi pūʻulu o nā kuʻikahi hoʻomalu lima. , a hōʻole i ke kūkākūkā ʻana i nā ʻōlelo hoʻoholo i nā pilikia palekana kūpono i hāpai ʻia e Russia.
I Dekemaba 2021, ma hope o kahi hui ma waena o nā Pelekikena Biden a me Putin, ua waiho ʻo Rūsia i kahi manaʻo kuhi no kahi kuikahi palekana hou ma waena o Rusia a me NATO, me 9 mau ʻatikala e kūkākūkā ʻia. Ua hōʻike lākou i kumu kūpono no ka hoʻololi koʻikoʻi. ʻO ka mea pili loa i ka pilikia ma Ukraine ʻo ka ʻae wale ʻana ʻaʻole e ʻae ʻo NATO iā Ukraine ma ke ʻano he lālā hou, ʻaʻole ia ma ka papa i ka wā e hiki mai ana. Akā ua hoʻopau ka hoʻokele Biden i ka noi holoʻokoʻa a Rūsia ma ke ʻano he nonstarter, ʻaʻole ia he kumu no ke kūkākūkā ʻana.
No laila no ke aha i ʻae ʻole ʻia ai ke kūkākūkā ʻana i kahi kuʻikahi palekana like ʻole ua mākaukau ʻo Biden e hoʻoweliweli i nā tausani o nā ola Ukrainian, ʻoiai ʻaʻole hoʻokahi ola ʻAmelika, ma mua o ka hoʻāʻo ʻana e ʻimi i ke kumu maʻamau? He aha ka mea e ʻōlelo ai e pili ana i ka waiwai pili a Biden a me kāna mau hoa hana ma luna o ʻAmelika a me nā ola Ukrainian? A he aha kēia kūlana ʻano ʻē a ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i kēia ao e ʻae ai i kahi pelekikena ʻAmelika e hoʻopilikia i nā ola he nui o Ukrainian me ka noi ʻole ʻana i nā ʻAmelika e kaʻana like i ko lākou ʻeha a me ka mōhai?
ʻO ka haʻihaʻi ʻana o ka pilina o US me Rūsia a me ka hāʻule ʻole o ka brinkmanship inflexible o Biden i hoʻomaka i kēia kaua, akā naʻe, ʻo ke kulekele ʻo Biden e "hoʻopuka" i nā ʻeha a me nā ʻeha a pau i hiki i nā ʻAmelika, e like me kekahi. pelekikena kaua i kekahi manawa, "e hele i kā lākou ʻoihana" a hoʻomau i ke kūʻai. ʻO nā hoa pili ʻEulopa o ʻAmelika, pono lākou e hoʻopaʻa i nā haneli haneli o ka poʻe mahuka a ke alo nei i ka piʻi ʻana o nā kumukūʻai ikehu, e makaʻala i ka hāʻule ʻana i ka laina ma hope o kēia ʻano "alakaʻi" ma mua o ka pau ʻana o lākou ma ka laina mua.
I ka pau ʻana o ke Kaua anuanu, ua hoʻopau ʻia ka Warsaw Pact, ka hui o ʻEulopa Hikina o NATO, a me NATO. pono loaʻa ʻoiai ua hoʻokō ʻia ke kumu i kūkulu ʻia ai e lawelawe. Akā, ua noho ʻo NATO ma ke ʻano he kuikahi pūʻali koa weliweli a waho o ka mana i hoʻolaʻa nui ʻia i ka hoʻonui ʻana i kāna hana a me ka hōʻoia ʻana i kona ola ponoʻī. Ua hoʻonui ʻia mai 16 mau ʻāina i ka makahiki 1991 a i ka huina o 30 mau ʻāina i kēia lā, e hoʻopili ana i ka hapa nui o ʻEulopa Hikina, i ka manawa like me ka hana ʻino ʻana, ka pana ʻana o nā makaʻāinana a me nā hewa kaua ʻē aʻe.
I ka makahiki 1999, NATO ee he kaua kūʻokoʻa e kālai kaua i kahi Kosovo kūʻokoʻa mai nā koena o Yugoslavia. ʻO ka hoʻouka kaua o NATO i ka wā o ke Kaua Kosovo i pepehi i nā haneli he nui o nā maka'āinana, aʻo kona hoa alakaʻi i ke kaua,ʻo Kosovo Pelekikena Hashim Thaci, ke hoʻokolokoloʻia nei ma The Hague no ka weliweli. nā kānāwai kaua Ua hana ʻo ia ma lalo o ka uhi o ka pana ʻana o NATO, me ka pepehi kanaka koko anu o nā haneli haneli e kūʻai aku i ko lākou mau kino i loko o ka mākeke transplant honua.
Ma kahi mamao loa mai ka ʻĀkelanika ʻĀkau, ua hui pū ʻo NATO me ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i kāna kaua 20-makahiki ma Afghanistan, a laila hoʻouka a luku ʻia ʻo Libya ma 2011, a waiho i kahi kūlana kū ʻole, he pilikia puʻuhonua mau a me ka hana ʻino a me ka haunaele ma ka ʻāina.
Ma 1991, ma ke ʻano he ʻaelike Soviet e ʻae i ka hui hou ʻana o East and West Germany, ua hōʻoiaʻiʻo nā alakaʻi o ke Komohana i ko lākou mau hoa Soviet ʻaʻole lākou e hoʻonui i ka NATO ma kahi kokoke i Rusia ma mua o ka palena o kahi Kelemania hui. Ua hoʻohiki ʻo US Secretary of State James Baker ʻaʻole e holomua ʻo NATO "hoʻokahi iniha" ma waho o ka palena Kelemania. Ua wehewehe ʻia nā ʻōlelo hoʻohiki a ke Komohana no nā mea a pau e ʻike ma 30 declassified palapala paʻi ʻia ma ka pūnaewele National Security Archive.
Ma hope o ka hoʻonui ʻana ma ʻEulopa Hikina a me ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana ma Afghanistan a me Libya, ua wānana ʻo NATO i ka pōʻai piha e ʻike hou iā Rūsia ʻo kona ʻenemi nui. Hoʻokumu ʻia nā mea kaua nuklea US i ʻelima mau ʻāina NATO ma ʻEulopa: Kelemānia, Italia, Netherlands, Belgium a me Turkey, ʻoiai ʻo Farani a me UK ua loaʻa i kā lākou mau mea kaua nuklea. ʻO nā ʻōnaehana "missile defense" US, i hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia i nā missiles nuklea ahi, e hoʻokumu ʻia ma Polani a me Romania, me ka kahua ma Polani he 100 mile wale no mai ka palena o Rusia.
ʻO Rūkia ʻē aʻe noi i loko o kāna noi ʻo Dekemaba no ʻAmelika e hui hou i ka makahiki 1988 Kuʻikahi INF (Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty), ma lalo o ka ʻae ʻana o nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua ʻaʻole e kau i nā missiles nuklea pōkole a waena paha ma ʻEulopa. Ua haʻalele ʻo Trump mai ke kuʻikahi ma 2019 ma ka ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo a kāna National Security Adviser, ʻo John Bolton, ʻo ia hoʻi nā poʻo o ka makahiki 1972. Kuikahi ABM, Ka 2015 Hoʻonui JCPOA me Iran a me 1994 Ka Papahana ʻaelike me Korea ʻĀkau e kau ana mai kona kāʻei pū.
ʻAʻole hiki i kekahi o kēia ke hōʻoiaʻiʻo i ka hoʻouka kaua ʻana o Rusia iā Ukraine, akā pono ke ao nei e lawe koʻikoʻi iā Rūsia i ka wā e ʻōlelo ai ʻo kāna mau kūlana no ka hoʻopau ʻana i ke kaua a me ka hoʻi ʻana i ka diplomacy ʻo ia ka neutrality a me ka wehe ʻana o Ukrainian. ʻOiai ʻaʻole hiki ke manaʻo ʻia ʻaʻohe ʻāina e hoʻopau loa i nā mea kaua i ka honua o kēia mau lā, hiki i ka neutrality ke koho lōʻihi loa no Ukraine.
Nui nā hanana holomua, e like me Switzerland, Austria, Ireland, Finland a me Costa Rica. A i ʻole e lawe i ka hihia o Vietnam. He palena maʻamau kona a me nā hoʻopaʻapaʻa moana koʻikoʻi me Kina, akā ua kūʻē ʻo Vietnam i ka hoʻāʻo ʻana o ʻAmelika e hoʻopili iā ia i kāna Kaua anu me Kina, a ua kūpaʻa mau i kāna hana lōʻihi. “ʻEhā No” kulekele: ʻaʻohe hui pūʻali koa; ʻaʻole pili i kekahi ʻāina i kekahi; ʻaʻohe kahua kaua haole; ʻaʻohe mea hoʻoweliweli a hoʻohana ikaika.
Pono ka honua e hana i nā mea a pau e loaʻa ai kahi hoʻomaha ma Ukraine a hoʻopaʻa. Hiki paha iā UN Secretary General Guterres a i ʻole he ʻelele kūikawā UN ke hana ma ke ʻano he uwao, me ka hana mālama maluhia no ka UN. ʻAʻole maʻalahi kēia - ʻo kekahi o nā haʻawina i aʻo ʻole ʻia o nā kaua ʻē aʻe ʻo ia ka maʻalahi o ka pale ʻana i ke kaua ma o ka diplomacy koʻikoʻi a me ka hoʻokō maoli i ka maluhia ma mua o ka hoʻopau ʻana i ke kaua i ka wā i hoʻomaka ai.
Inā a i ka wā e pau ai ke ahi, pono e mākaukau nā ʻaoʻao a pau e hoʻomaka hou e kūkākūkā i nā hopena diplomatic mau loa e hiki ai i nā poʻe āpau o Donbas, Ukraine, Russia, ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a me nā lālā ʻē aʻe o NATO e noho maluhia. ʻAʻole he pāʻani zero-sum ka palekana, ʻaʻole hiki i kahi ʻāina a i ʻole hui o nā ʻāina ke hoʻokō i ka palekana mau loa ma ka hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻana i ka palekana o nā poʻe ʻē aʻe.
Pono ʻo ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a me Rūsia e lawe i ke kuleana e hele mai me ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana ma luna o 90% o nā mea kaua nuklea o ka honua, a e ʻae i kahi hoʻolālā e hoʻomaka ai e hoʻopau iā lākou, e like me ka Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) a me ke kuʻikahi hou o ka UN ma ka pāpā ʻana i nā mea kaua nuklea (TPNW).
ʻO ka mea hope loa, ʻoiai ʻo ʻAmelika e hoʻohewa nei i ka hoʻomāinoino ʻana o Rūsia, ʻo ia ke ʻano o ka hoʻokamani e poina a nānā ʻole paha i nā kaua he nui i hala aku nei i lilo ai ʻo ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a me kona mau hoa i nā mea ʻino: i Kosovo, ʻApekanikana, ʻIlaka, Laua, Somalia, Palekekine, Pakitana, Libia, Suria a Iemene.
Manaʻolana mākou e hoʻopau ʻo Rūsia i kāna hoʻouka kaua ʻole ʻana a me ka hoʻomāinoino iā Ukraine ma mua o ka hana ʻana i kahi hapa o ka pepehi kanaka nui a me ka luku ʻana a ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i kāna mau kaua kū kānāwai.
ʻO Medea Benjamin ka mea nāna i hoʻokumu ʻO CODEPINK no ka maluhia, a me nā mea kākau o kekahi mau puke, e komo pū ai I loko o Iran:ʻO ka moʻoleloʻoiaʻiʻo a me ka politika o ka moku'Alapila o Iran.
He kanaka hana kūlohelohe ʻo Nicolas JS Davies, he mea noiʻi me CODEPINK a ʻo ka mea nāna i kākau ʻO ke koko ma ko mākou mau lima: Ke komohewa aku nei ʻo ʻAmelika a me ka luku ʻana iā Iraq.
