Isivumelwano sentsebenziswano phakathi koMntla noMzantsi Korea kwiiOlimpiki sibonelela ngokunqumama kwigubu lezoyikiso zemfazwe ngokuhlehlisa umthambo odibeneyo wase-US-South Korea de kube semva kokuba iMidlalo yaseBusika igqityiwe. Kodwa imbuyekezo yokwenyani evela kwi-Olimpiki detente kukuba kungenzeka ukuba oorhulumente bakaMongameli waseMzantsi Korea u-Moon Jae-in kunye no-Kim Jong Un wase-North Korea banokufikelela kwisivumelwano sokuguqula i-US-Riphabhlikhi yase-Korea (ROK) yokuzivocavoca umkhosi ngokubuyisela i-North Korea. uvavanyo lwenyukliya kunye nemijukujelwa ngumkhenkce.
Eso sivumelwano se-intra-Korea sinokuvula indlela entsha yeengxoxo phakathi kwe-United States kunye neNorth Korea malunga neenkqubo zenyukliya kunye ne-missile yasePyongyang kunye nokuhlaliswa kokugqibela kweMfazwe yaseKorea-ukuba uDonald Trump uzimisele ukuthatha i-off-ramp kwingxaki. Kodwa ayinguye uKim Jong Un kuphela othathe inyathelo lozakuzaku lokuvula indlela yokuphuma kule ngxaki. UMoon Jae-in usebenzele ukuqhubela phambili olo lungelelwano ukusukela oko wamiselwa njengomongameli waseMzantsi Korea ngoMeyi ophelileyo.
Isiphakamiso seNyanga-esingazange sichazwe kumajelo eendaba ase-US-saqala ukudada kwiintsuku nje ze-10 ngaphambi kokuba iNyanga ifike kwintlanganiso yengqungquthela ye-29 kaJuni kunye noTrump eWashington, umcebisi okhethekileyo weNyanga ye-DC kumanyano, imicimbi yangaphandle kunye nokhuseleko lwesizwe, Moon Chung-in, wanika isiphakamiso kwisemina kwiWilson Centre eWashington njenge ukubonakaliswa kweengcinga zikaMongameli uNyanga. UMoon Chung-in uthe enye yeembono zikamongameli kukuba uMzantsi Korea kunye ne-US "banokuxoxa ngokunciphisa umthambo ohlangeneyo wase-Korea-US ukuba iNorth Korea iyanqumamisa izixhobo zayo zenyukliya kunye nemijukujelwa." Wongeze ukuba uMongameli iNyanga "wayecinga ukuba singaze sinciphise i-asethi yeqhinga laseMelika elithunyelwe kwiPeninsula yaseKorea [ngexesha lokuzilolonga]."
Ethetha nabanxibelelanisi baseMzantsi Korea emva kwesemina, u-Moon Chung-in uthe "akukho mfuneko yokuthumela iimpahla ezicwangcisiweyo ezifana nabathwali beenqwelo-moya kunye neenqanawa ezintywilayo zenyukliya ngexesha leSisombululo esiPhambili kunye ne-Foal Eagle." Abacwangcisi bezomkhosi basebenzisa igama elithi “impahla yobuchule” xa bebhekisa kwinqwelo-moya nakwiinqanawa ezikwaziyo ukuhambisa izixhobo zenyukliya, nto leyo ekudala ichaswa nguMntla Korea.
U-Moon Chung-in ucebise ukuhlutha ezo "asethi zeqhinga," ezingazange zibe yinxalenye yokuzivocavoca ngokudibeneyo ngaphambi kwe-2015, ngaphandle kwemisebenzi edibeneyo, ephikisana ukuba ukongezwa kwabo kuye kwaba yimpazamo yeqhinga. "Ekubeni i-US iqhubele phambili ihambisa izinto zayo zobuchule," utshilo, "iNorth Korea ibonakala iphendula ngale ndlela kuba icinga ukuba i-US iyakubetha ukuba uMntla ubonisa nabuphi na ubuthathaka."
U-Moon Chung-in uxelele iintatheli zaseMzantsi Korea kamva ukuba wayebonisa iingcamango zakhe, ezazingengomgaqo-nkqubo osemthethweni karhulumente, kodwa ukuba "ayiyi kuba yinto ephosakeleyo" ukuthetha ukuba uMongameli Nyanga wavumelana nabo. Kwaye igosa eliphezulu kwi-ofisi kaNyanga elinyanzelise ukuba lingachazwa igama lakhe xa lithetha neentatheli akakhanyela ukuba umbono owawuxutyushwa nguMoon Chung-in wawuphantsi koqwalaselo nguMongameli iNyanga, kodwa yathi iofisi yayixelele uChung ukuba intetho yakhe “ayinakuba luncedo kubudlelwane bexesha elizayo phakathi koMzantsi Korea neUnited States.”
Omnye umntu onobudlelwane kurhulumente omtsha, igqala lozakuzaku uShin Bong-Kil, thaca isindululo esifanayo kwiforum yaseSeoul ngasekupheleni kukaJuni. UShin, owayesakuba ngumlawuli weCandelo loMgaqo-nkqubo we-Inter-Korea kwiSebe lezaNgaphandle lase-ROK iminyaka emininzi kwaye elilungu leqela lezozakuzo elalithunyelwe ngurhulumente weNyanga ukuba lichaze imigaqo-nkqubo yalo kurhulumente waseTshayina, wayesandula ukubuya kwinkomfa eyayiseStockholm apho. Amagosa esebe lezangaphandle laseNorth Korea nawo athathe inxaxheba. Ngokusekwe kwinto ayivileyo kwinkomfa, uShin waxoxa ukuba ukunika ukuphelisa izinto ezinjalo kwiSisombululo esiPhambili kunye neFoal Eagle ukuzilolonga kuya kubonelela ngento awayibiza ngokuba "yimbuyekezo enkulu" yokufumana ukwamkelwa kweNorth Korea yovavanyo lwenyukliya kunye nomjukujelwa.
Kwangaloo veki iMoon Chung-in yenza isindululo esidlangalaleni, uMongameli iNyanga ngokwakhe waxoxa kwi udliwano-ndlebe ne-CBS News ngokuchasene nemfuno yolawulo lukaTrump "yokupheliswa ngokupheleleyo kwenkqubo yenyukliya yaseNorth Korea." UMoon uthe, "Ndiyakholelwa ukuba okokuqala kufuneka silwele ukumisa iinkqubo zenyukliya kunye nemijukujelwa yaseNorth Korea."
Wayephakamisa imfuno yokubeka endaweni yesindululo "somkhenkce wokukhenkceza" esamkelwa yiBeijing, iPyongyang kunye neMoscow, esiya kufuna ukuba kupheliswe ngokupheleleyo umthambo ohlangeneyo wase-US-South Korea wokumisa kuvavanyo lwenyukliya yaseNorth Korea kunye nemijukujelwa. Umkhosi wase-US walile.
Iingcali ezimbini zaseKorea zaseKorea zazisele zikhona bephuhlisa esabo isindululo esineenkcukacha ukuthoba imithambo ye-US-ROK. UJoel Wit, owayesakuba ngumcebisi omkhulu ku-Ambassador uRobert Gallucci kuthethwano lwesakhelo ekuvunyelwene ngaso-ngoku oqhuba iwebhusayithi 38 North, egxile eNyakatho Korea-kunye noWilliam McKinney, owayesakuba yintloko yesebe leFar East kwicandelo lezopolitiko-mkhosi. Ikomkhulu lomkhosi e-Pentagon, laxoxa ukuba ukubhabha kweenqwelomoya ezikwaziyo ukwenza izixhobo zenyukliya kunye nezinye "impahla yobuchule" yayingeyomfuneko kwiinjongo zomkhosi wase-US.
Njengoko uMcKinney ephawulile kudliwanondlebe nam, iinqwelomoya zase-US ezilinganisa uhlaselo lwenyukliya eMantla zisebenzisa inqwelomoya ezinezixhobo ezimbini “zihlala zingaphandle kwenkqubo yokuzilolonga.” Injongo yezo nqwelomoya, uMcKinney uthe, "kukuba yimbonakaliso ebonakalayo yesakhono sethu sokuthintela, kwaye kunokuphikiswana ukuba sele ibonisiwe."
Phakathi kolunye utshintsho, uMcKinney kunye noWit bacebise ukuba umsebenzi odibeneyo we-US-ROK Ulchi-Freedom Guardian ocwangciselwe ukuqalisa ngo-Agasti uthatyathelwe indawo ngurhulumente waseMzantsi Korea oza kujongwa ngamagosa aphezulu ase-US, kwaye umthambo we-Foal Eagle, obandakanya ulungelelwaniso lwemithambo yasemanzini kunye neyomoya, luqhutywa “ngaphaya kolundi”—okuthetha ukuba kude lee noSingasiqithi waseKorea.
INyanga ithe cwaka yacinezela ityala lakhe kunye nolawulo lukaTrump, icela ukuba i-Ulchi Freedom Guardian iqhutywe ngaphandle kokuba "impahla yeqhinga" ibandakanyiwe, kwaye nangona ihambe phantse ingaqatshelwa, umyalelo wase-US eMzantsi Korea wavuma ngokuzolileyo. Inethiwekhi kamabonakude yaseMzantsi Korea i-SBS ingxelo nge-18 ka-Agasti ukuba iUnited States ikurhoxisile ukuthunyelwa okucwangcisiweyo kwangaphambili kwezithwala iinqwelomoya ezimbini zase-US, inkwili yenyukliya kunye neqhinga lokuqhushumba njengenxalenye yomsebenzi ngokwesicelo seNyanga.
IiOlimpiki zaseBusika zinike iNyanga isizathu sokutyhalela phambili i-ajenda yakhe yezozakuzo. Ubhengeze nge-19 kaDec ukuba wayecele ukuba umkhosi wase-US uhlehlise umsebenzi odibeneyo we-US-ROK ocwangciselwe uJanuwari ukuya kuMatshi kude kube semva kweeOlimpiki, ngokuxhomekeke kuMntla Korea ukuba ungalwenzi uvavanyo. Kodwa ngaphambi kokuba impendulo esemthethweni yase-US ifike, uKim Jong Un waphendula ngenyathelo lakhe lezopolitiko. Kunyaka wakhe Intetho yoSuku loNyaka oMtsha, uKim ubize into awayibiza ngokuba “yi-détente” noMzantsi Korea ukuze “athomalalise ungquzulwano olukhulu lwasemkhosini phakathi kwamantla namazantsi.”
Inkokeli yaseNyakatho Korea yacela urhulumente weNyanga ukuba "ayeke konke ukubetha kwenyukliya abakwenzileyo kunye nemikhosi yangaphandle" kwaye "bayeke ukuzisa izixhobo zenyukliya kunye nemikhosi ehlaselayo yase-United States." Olo qulunqo, olwahlula phakathi koqeqesho oludibeneyo lwasemkhosini kunye noqheliselo lwenyukliya, lucebise ukuba uKim wayebonisa umdla kaPyongyang wokuthethathethana ngesivumelwano esasiphakanyiswe ngabacebisi beNyanga esidlangalaleni kwiinyanga ezintandathu ngaphambili.
INyanga yaphendula ngesimemo kwiNorth Korea yeengxoxo eziphakamileyo ngoJan. 9 malunga nentsebenziswano ye-Olimpiki kunye nokunciphisa ukuxhatshazwa kwezempi, ukuqala inkqubo ye-diplomacy yaseNyakatho-South.
Akumangalisi ukuba, amajelo eendaba ajonge ukubuza kwi-diplomacy yaseNyanga yaseNyakatho Korea. Ibali leNew York Times kwidilesi kaKim kaNyaka oMtsha yaqikelela ukuba inkokeli yaseNyakatho Korea iphumelele ukudlala uMongameli iNyanga ngokuchasene nolawulo lukaTrump, kodwa ngokwenene, urhulumente waseMzantsi Korea uyaqonda ukuba inyathelo alikwazi ukuphumelela ngaphandle kwenkxaso yolawulo lukaTrump.
Iingxoxo zaseMntla-Mzantsi ezisele ziqalisile ziya kujikeleza ngokuza nefomula yesivumelwano sokuguqula umthambo odibeneyo womkhosi ukubuyisela umkhenkce kuvavanyo lwezixhobo zobuchule zaseNorth Korea. Iintetho zinokuthatha ixesha elide kuneeOlimpiki, ezinokufuna ukuhlehliswa kwakhona kwe-US-ROK yokuzilolonga eqhele ukuqala ngoMatshi. Xa uMphathiswa Wezangaphandle waseMzantsi Korea u-Kang Kyung-Hwa wabhengeza ngoJan. 25 ukuba ugwayimbo lokuqala lwase-US kwi-missile yaseNyakatho Korea kunye / okanye iithagethi zenyukliya "azamkelekanga" kurhulumente we-ROK, walile ukutsho ukuba uMzantsi uza kuphinda uqalise ukusebenza emva IiOlimpiki.
Elo lizwi libonisa ukuba akukho lawulo lukaTrump okanye iindaba zeendaba eziye zavuma esidlangalaleni: I-United States yase-South Korea ithatha ukuqala kweengxoxo kunye neNorth Korea njengento ephambili-iphezulu kunokuphinda iqalise imikhosi yasemkhosini eye yahlazisa iNorth Korea amashumi eminyaka. kwaye ngakumbi ukusukela ngo-2015.
