Le yimeko kaxakeka.

Okwangoku, sisondele kwimfazwe yenyukliya eyintlekele kunalo naliphi na elinye ixesha ukusukela kwiCuban Missile Crisis ngo-1962. Uvavanyo olunye emva omnye uthe imeko yangoku iyingozi ngakumbi.

Nangona kunjalo ambalwa amalungu eNkongolo axhasa nawaphi na amanyathelo urhulumente wase-US anokuthi awathathe ukunciphisa ubungozi bomlilo wenyukliya. Ukuthula kunye neengxelo ezithulisiwe kwiCapitol Hill zibaleka ubunyani bento ejingayo kwibhalansi - ukutshatyalaliswa phantse bonke ubomi bomntu eMhlabeni. “Ukuphela kwempucuko. "

Ukungakhathali okusisiseko kunceda amagosa anyuliweyo ukuba alale esiya kwintlekele engathethekiyo kulo lonke uluntu. Ukuba iisenethi kunye nabameli bazakuvuswa ekwaleni kwabo ukoyika ukujongana ngokukhawuleza - kwaye basebenze ukunciphisa - imingcipheko ephezulu ekhoyo yemfazwe yenyukliya, kufuneka bajongane nayo. Ngokungenabundlobongela nangokugxininisa.

Umongameli waseRussia uVladimir Putin wenze isigqubuthelo esincinci, iingxelo zokungakhathali malunga nokusebenzisa izixhobo zenyukliya kwimfazwe yaseUkraine. Kwangaxeshanye, eminye yemigaqo-nkqubo karhulumente wase-US yenza ukuba imfazwe yenyukliya ibe lula. Ukuzitshintsha kunyanzelekile.

Kwezi nyanga zimbalwa zidlulileyo, bendisebenza nabantu kumazwe amaninzi abangazixhalabisiyo nje ngeengozi zemfazwe yenyukliya - bazimisele ukuthatha inyathelo ukuyithintela. Eso sigqibo siye saphumela ekuququzeleleni ngaphezu kwama-35 imigca yepikithi ezakwenzeka ngoLwesihlanu, ngo-Oktobha 14, kwiiofisi zasekuhlaleni zeSenethi kunye namalungu eNdlu kulo lonke ilizwe. (Ukuba ufuna ukucwangcisa ukukhethwa okunjalo kwindawo yakho, yiya Apha.)

Yintoni enokwenziwa ngurhulumente wase-US ukunciphisa amathuba okutshatyalaliswa kwenyukliya yehlabathi? I Ukuthomalalisa iMfazwe yeNyukliya iphulo, eliququzelela loo migca yepikethi, lichonge izenzo eziphambili ezifunekayo. Njenge:

**  Joyina kwakhona izivumelwano zezixhobo zenyukliya i-US eye yarhoxa kuzo.

UMongameli uGeorge W. Bush wayirhoxisa iMelika kwiSivumelwano se-Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) ngo-2002. Ngaphantsi kukaDonald Trump, i-US yarhoxa kwiSivumelwano se-Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) ngo-2019. Zombini izivumelwano zanciphisa kakhulu amathuba okuba imfazwe yenyukliya.

**  Thatha izixhobo zenyukliya zase-US kwi-hair-trigger isilumkiso.

Imijukujelwa engamakhulu amane ye-intercontinental ballistic (i-ICBMs) ixhobile kwaye ilungele ukuqaliswa kwii-silo eziphantsi komhlaba kumazwe amahlanu. Ngenxa yokuba zisekwe emhlabeni, loo mijukujelwa isesichengeni sokuhlaselwa kwaye iyaqhubeka isivuseleli sokuvusa iinwele - ukuvumela imizuzu kuphela ukuba ibone ukuba ingaba izibonakaliso zokuhlaselwa okuzayo ziyinyani okanye i-alamu yobuxoki.

**  Ukuphelisa umgaqo-nkqubo "wokuqala wokusetyenziswa."

NjengeRussia, iUnited States yalile ukuthembisa ukuba ayizukuba yeyokuqala ukusebenzisa izixhobo zenyukliya.

**  Xhasa intshukumo yenkongolo ukunqanda imfazwe yenyukliya.

KwiNdlu, u-H.Res. I-1185 iquka ikhwelo lokuba iUnited States "ikhokele umzamo wehlabathi jikelele wokuthintela imfazwe yenyukliya."

Imfuno emandla yeyokuba amalungu ebhunga kunye nabameli banyanzelise ukuba ukuthatha inxaxheba kwe-US kwi-nuclear brinkmanship akwamkelekanga. Njengoko iqela lethu leMfazwe yeNyukliya litsho, "I-activism yeGrassroots iya kuba yimfuneko ekucinezeleni amalungu eCongress ukuba avume esidlangalaleni ubungozi bemfazwe yenyukliya kwaye akhuthaze ngamandla amanyathelo athile okunciphisa."

Ngaba loo nto ininzi kakhulu ukubuza? Okanye nokuba ufuna?
