Ikratshi lamandla liyoyikeka ngakumbi kwaye licekisekile xa inkokeli karhulumente ibeka esichengeni inani elikhulu labantu ukuze yenze intshukumo exhokonxayo kwi-geopolitical chessboard yehlabathi. Isicwangciso sikaNancy Pelosi sokundwendwela iTaiwan sikulo didi. Enkosi kuye, amathuba okungqubana kwezomkhosi phakathi kweTshayina ne-United States anyukele phezulu.

Ixesha elide linokutsha ngaphezulu kweTaiwan, ukungavisisani phakathi kweBeijing neWashington ngoku kusondele ukuvutha, ngenxa yomnqweno kaPelosi wokuba sisithethi sokuqala seNdlu ukutyelela iTaiwan kwiminyaka engama-25. Ngaphandle kwee-alam zokuba izicwangciso zakhe zokuhamba ziphelile, uMongameli u-Biden uphendule ngoloyiko-nangona uninzi lweziko lifuna ukubona uhambo lurhoxisiwe.

Ewe, ndicinga ukuba umkhosi ucinga ukuba ayingombono olungileyo ngoku,” uBiden wathi ngohambo oluza kwenzeka ngoJulayi 20. “Kodwa andiyazi ukuba injani imeko yalo.”

UBiden ngewayelubeke phantsi unyawo lwakhe lukamongameli kwaye walukhupha uhambo lukaPelosi lwaseTaiwan, kodwa akazange akwenze oko. Ukanti, njengoko iintsuku zazihamba, kwavakala iindaba zokuba inkcaso kolo hambo yayixhaphakile kwiindawo eziphezulu zolawulo lwakhe.

"Umcebisi wezokhuseleko kuzwelonke uJake Sullivan kunye namanye amagosa aphezulu eBhunga leSizwe lezoKhuseleko bayaluchasa olu hambo ngenxa yomngcipheko wokunyuka kwengxabano kwi-Taiwan Strait," iFinancial Times umbiko. Kwaye phesheya, "impikiswano yolu hambo ibangele inkxalabo phakathi kwamaqabane aseWashington anexhala lokuba inokubangela ingxaki phakathi kwe-US ne China."

Ukugxininisa ukuba umphathi-mkhosi oyintloko wase-US akanayo nantoni na ngaphandle kommi omsulwa malunga nohambo lukaPelosi, amagosa adize ukuba iPentagon ijonge ukubonelela ngeejethi zokulwa njengabakhaphi ukuba udlula kutyelelo lwaseTaiwan. Ukungazimiseli kukaBiden ukuyeka ngokucacileyo utyelelo olunjalo kubonisa indlela echuliweyo yendlela yakhe yokujongana neTshayina.

Ngaphezu konyaka ophelileyo - phantsi kwesihloko esifanelekileyo seNew York Times "Inkqubo yaseTaiwan yaseBiden iyinyani, ayinankathalo kakhulu" - uPeter Beinart ikhonjwe ngaphandle ukuba kwasekuqaleni kobumongameli bakhe uBiden "wayerhoxa" kumgaqo-nkqubo we-US "omnye waseTshayina": "Biden yaba umongameli wokuqala waseMelika ukusukela ngo-1978 ukubamba umthunywa waseTaiwan ekumiselweni kwakhe. Ngo-Epreli, ulawulo lwakhe umemezele yayinciphisa imida yamashumi eminyaka kunxibelelwano olusemthethweni lwase-US kunye norhulumente waseTaiwan. Le migaqo-nkqubo yandisa amathuba emfazwe eyintlekele. Okukhona i-United States neTaiwan zivala ngokusesikweni ucango lokumanyana kwakhona, kokukhona iBeijing ifuna ukumanyaniswa ngamandla. ”

UBeinart wongeze wathi: “Eyona nto ibalulekileyo kukuba abantu baseTaiwan balondoloze inkululeko yabo kwaye isijikelezi-langa asinyamezeli imfazwe yehlabathi yesithathu. Eyona ndlela ibalaseleyo yokuba iUnited States ikwazi ukuphumeza olo sukelo kukugcina inkxaso yasemkhosini yaseMerika kwiTaiwan ngoxa ikwalondoloza inkqubo ‘yeTshayina enye’ eye yanceda ekugcinweni koxolo kwindawo eyingozi emhlabeni ngaphezu kweminyaka engamashumi amane.”

Ngoku, inyathelo likaPelosi lokundwendwela eTaiwan liye lafikelela kukhukuliseko oluthe kratya lomgaqo-nkqubo “weTshayina enye”. Impendulo ka-Biden ye-mealy-mouthed kolu hambo yayiluhlobo olufihlakeleyo lwe-brinkmanship.

Uninzi lwabagqabaza abaphambili, ngelixa begxeka kakhulu i-China, bayayivuma imeko eyingozi. "Ulawulo lwe-Biden luhlala luzibophelele ekubeni yi-hawkish e-China kunangaphambili," umbhali wembali u-Niall Ferguson wabhala ngolwesihlanu. Wongeze wathi: "Kusenokwenzeka ukuba, ukubalwa kwi-White House kuhleli, njengonyulo luka-2020, ukuba nzima eTshayina ngumntu ophumelele ukuvota - okanye, ukubeka ngokwahlukileyo, ukuba ukwenza nantoni na abantu baseRiphabhlikhi banokubonisa 'njengobuthathaka eTshayina. 'ngumntu ophulukene nevoti. Nangona kunjalo kunzima ukukholelwa ukuba olu balo lunokuthi lubambe ukuba isiphumo ibiyingxaki entsha yamazwe ngamazwe, nazo zonke iziphumo zayo kwezoqoqosho. "

Ngeli xesha, iWall Street Journal shwa nkathelwe umzuzu onzima wangoku onesihloko esithi utyelelo lukaPelosi "lunokuthi lwazise ubudlelwane phakathi kwe-US, China."

Kodwa iziphumo - kude nokuba zezoqoqosho kunye nezozakuzaku-zinokubakho kulo lonke uluntu. I-China inamakhulu aliqela ezixhobo zenyukliya ezilungele ukusetyenziswa, ngelixa iUnited States inamawaka aliqela. Ukubakho kongquzulwano lwasemkhosini kunye nokunyuka kuyinyaniso kakhulu.

"Sihlala sibanga ukuba umgaqo-nkqubo wethu 'omnye waseTshayina' awukatshintshi, kodwa utyelelo lwasePelosi ngokucacileyo luya kuba sisiqalo kwaye alunakuthatyathwa njengokuhambelana 'nobudlelwane obungekho semthethweni,'" wathi USusan Thornton, owayesakuba ngunobhala oncedisayo obambeleyo kwiMicimbi yaseMpuma yeAsia kunye nePasifiki kwiSebe likaRhulumente. UThornton wongeze wathi: "Ukuba uyahamba, ithemba lengxaki liyenyuka njengoko iTshayina kuya kufuneka iphendule."

Kwiveki ephelileyo, ibini labahlalutyi bomgaqo-nkqubo abaphambili abavela kwiitanki zokucinga ezikumgangatho ophezulu - iGerman Marshall Fund kunye neAmerican Enterprise Institute - wabhala kwi<em>New York Times: “Intlantsi enye inokubangela le meko itshayo ibe yingxaki ekhokelela kungquzulwano lwasemkhosini. Utyelelo lukaNancy Pelosi eTaiwan lunokubonelela. ”

Kodwa uJulayi waphela iimpawu ezinamandla ukuba uBiden unike ukukhanya okuluhlaza kwaye uPelosi usazimisele ukuqhubela phambili notyelelo oluzayo eTaiwan. Olu luhlobo lobunkokeli olunokusenza sibulawe sonke.
