By Ulwabiwo lokuQinisekiswa koBuNxweme kunye nokuVala, NgoMeyi 24, 2022

Ileta yeTranspartisan eNchasa iziseko ezitsha zoMkhosi wase-US eYurophu kwaye iCebisa iindlela ezizezinye zokuxhasa i-Ukraine, i-US, kunye noKhuseleko lwaseYurophu.

UMongameli othandekayo uJoseph Biden, uNobhala wezoKhuseleko uLloyd J. Austin III, uSihlalo weeNtloko zaBasebenzi uGen. Mark A. Milley, uNobhala kaRhulumente u-Antony Blinken, uMcebisi weSizwe wezoKhuseleko uJake Sullivan, aMalungu eCongress,

Abasayiniweyo bamele iqela elibanzi labahlalutyi basemkhosini, amagqala, izifundiswa, abameli, kunye nemibutho ephuma kulo lonke ilizwe lezopolitiko elichasa ukwenziwa kweziseko ezitsha zomkhosi wase-US eYurophu njengenkcitho kunye nokonakalisa ukhuseleko lwesizwe kwaye banikezela ngeendlela ezizezinye zokuphendula. imfazwe eUkraine.

Sifumana oku kulandelayo kwaye sandise kwindawo nganye engezantsi:

I-1) Akukho sisongelo somkhosi waseRashiya sithethelela ukudalwa kweziseko ezintsha zomkhosi wase-US.

I-2) Iziseko ezitsha zase-US ziya kuchitha iibhiliyoni kwiimali zabarhafi kwaye ziphazamise kwiinzame zoku
khusela ukhuseleko lwase-United States.

I-3) Iziseko ezitsha zase-US ziya kwandisa uxinzelelo lomkhosi kunye neRashiya, kwandisa
Umngcipheko wemfazwe yenyukliya enokubakho.

I-4) I-US inako kwaye kufuneka ivale iziseko ezingeyomfuneko eYurophu njengophawu lwamandla ngelixa
ukwenza nzulu iindlela ezinobuchule nezingabizi kakhulu kunye namahlakani.

I-5) Izindululo zokuma komkhosi wase-US eYurophu zinokuqhubela phambili iingxoxo zokuphelisa imfazwe
eUkraine ngokukhawuleza kangangoko kunokwenzeka.

1. Akukho sisongelo somkhosi waseRashiya sithethelela iziseko ezitsha zase-US

Imfazwe kaPutin e-Ukraine ibonise ubuthathaka bomkhosi waseRashiya, inika ubungqina obuninzi bokuba ayisisongelo esiqhelekileyo kwi-United States kunye ne-NATO.

Ngoxa uloyiko ngeRashiya phakathi kwabathile baseYurophu luqondakala, umkhosi waseRashiya awusosisongelo eYurophu ngaphaya kweUkraine, iMoldova neCaucuses.

Malunga nama-300 eendawo zase-US ezikhoyo eYurophu[1] kunye neziseko kunye nemikhosi eyongezelelweyo ye-NATO kunye neSiqendu sesi-5 se-NATO (esifuna amalungu ukuba akhusele naliphi na ilungu elihlaselweyo) zibonelela ngaphezu kokuthintela okwaneleyo kulo naluphi na uhlaselo lwaseRashiya kwi-NATO. Iziseko ezitsha aziyomfuneko.

Amaqabane e-NATO, ewodwa, aneziseko zomkhosi kunye nemikhosi engaphaya kwamandla okukhusela iYurophu kulo naluphi na uhlaselo lomkhosi waseRussia. Ukuba umkhosi waseUkraine unokubamba malunga ne-75% yemikhosi yokulwa yaseRashiya,[2] Amaqabane e-NATO ayifuni iziseko ezongezelelweyo zase-US kunye nemikhosi.

Ukunyusa ngokungeyomfuneko inani leziseko zomkhosi wase-US kunye nemikhosi yaseYurophu kuya kuphazamisa umkhosi wase-US ekukhuseleni i-United States.

2. Iziseko ezitsha ziyakuchitha iibhiliyoni zeedola zabarhafi

Ukwakha iziseko zase-US kunye namandla eYurophu kungachitha iibhiliyoni zeedola ezichithwe ngcono ekuwohlokeni kweziseko ezingundoqo zase-US kunye nezinye iimfuno ezicinezelayo zasekhaya. Abarhafi baseMelika sele bechithe imali eninzi kakhulu yokugcina iziseko kunye namandla eYurophu: malunga ne-30 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ngonyaka.[3]

Nokuba amahlakani ahlawulela ezinye iziseko ezitsha, abarhafi baseMelika baya kuchitha imali eninzi kakhulu ukugcina inani elikhulu lemikhosi yase-US eYurophu ngenxa yeendleko zokuhamba, ukonyuka kwemivuzo, kunye nezinye iindleko. Iindleko zexesha elizayo zinokunyuka njengoko amazwe abambayo ehlala erhoxisa inkxaso yezemali kwiziseko zase-US ekuhambeni kwexesha.

Ukwakha iziseko ezitsha zaseYurophu kunokunyusela uhlahlo lwabiwo-mali lwePentagon xa kufuneka sinqumle olo hlahlo lwabiwo-mali emva kokuphela kwemfazwe yase-Afghan. I-US ichitha ngaphezulu kwamaxesha e-12 oko iRussia ichitha emkhosini wayo. Amaqabane ase-US kwi-NATO sele eyichitha kakhulu iRussia, kwaye iJamani kunye nabanye baceba ukonyusa kakhulu inkcitho yabo emkhosini.[4]

3.  Iziseko ezitsha ziyaKunyusa uxinzelelo lwase-US-Russia, uMngcipheko (weNyukliya) iMfazwe

Ukwakha iziseko ezitsha zase-US (okanye ze-NATO) eYurophu kuya kwandisa ukungavisisani emkhosini neRussia, konyusa umngcipheko wemfazwe yenyukliya enokubakho neRussia.

Ukudala iziseko ezitsha zomkhosi wase-US eMpuma Yurophu, kufutshane kwaye kufutshane nemida yaseRussia, njengenxalenye yokwanda kwe-NATO kule minyaka ingamashumi amabini idlulileyo, isoyikise iRussia ngokungeyomfuneko kwaye yakhuthaza uPutin ukuba aphendule ngomkhosi. Ngaba iinkokeli zase-US kunye noluntu beziya kusabela njani ukuba iRussia yayakha iziseko kutshanje eCuba, eVenezuela, nakuMbindi Merika?

4. Ukuvala iziseko njengophawu lwamandla kunye noLungiselelo olulolunye loKhuseleko

Umkhosi wase-US sele uneziseko zomkhosi ezininzi kakhulu-malunga neendawo ezingama-300-kunye nemikhosi emininzi kakhulu eYurophu. Ukusukela ekupheleni kweMfazwe Yomlomo, iziseko zase-US eYurophu azizange ziyikhusele iYurophu. Basebenze njengeendawo zokuphehla iimfazwe eziyintlekele kuMbindi Mpuma.

I-US inako kwaye kufuneka ivale ngokukhuselekileyo iziseko kunye nokurhoxisa imikhosi eYurophu njengophawu lwamandla kunye nokuzithemba kumandla omkhosi wase-US kunye namahlakani e-NATO kunye nokubonakaliswa kwesoyikiso sokwenene esijongene neYurophu.

Imfazwe yase-Ukraine ibonise oko iingcali zomkhosi esele zazisazi: imikhosi yokusabela ngokukhawuleza inokuthunyelwa eYurophu ngokukhawuleza ngokwaneleyo ukuba isekelwe kwilizwekazi lase-United States ngenxa yomoya kunye neteknoloji yokutywina. Uninzi lwemikhosi esabela kwimfazwe yaseUkraine yavela eUnited States kunokuba ivela eYurophu, iphakamisa imibuzo malunga nesidingo seziseko kunye nemikhosi eYurophu.

Imfazwe e-Ukraine ibonise ukuba izivumelwano zokufikelela kwiziseko zezizwe ezibambeleyo, uthutho lwezixhobo kunye neenkqubo ezibanzi zolungiselelo, amalungiselelo oqeqesho, kunye nokubekwa kwangaphambili kweendlela ezingcono nezisebenzayo zokunceda amahlakani e-NATO akhusele ukhuseleko lwaseYurophu.

5. Iziphakamiso zokuPhambili iiNgxoxo zokuphelisa iMfazwe e-Ukraine

Urhulumente wase-US unokudlala indima enemveliso kwiingxoxo ngokuthembisa ukungazinzi iziseko ezitsha eYurophu.

Urhulumente wase-US unokuthembisa-esidlangalaleni okanye ngokufihlakeleyo, njengakwi-Cuban Missile Crisis-ukunciphisa imikhosi yakhe, ukurhoxisa izixhobo ezikhubekisayo, kunye nokuvala iziseko ezingeyomfuneko eYurophu.

I-US kunye ne-NATO inokuthembisa ukuba ayiyi kuvuma i-Ukraine okanye nawaphi na amalungu amatsha e-NATO ngaphandle kokuba iRashiya nayo ibe lilungu.

I-US kunye ne-NATO inokukhuthaza ukubuyela kwizivumelwano eYurophu ezilawula ukuthunyelwa kwemikhosi eqhelekileyo kunye neyenyukliya, kubandakanywa nokuhlolwa rhoqo kunye nokubeka iliso kwiziseko.

Ngomdla we-US, iYurophu, kunye nokhuseleko lwehlabathi, siyakubongoza ukuba ungenzi iziseko zomkhosi zase-US ezongezelelweyo eYurophu kunye nokuxhasa uthethathethwano lozakuzo ukuphelisa imfazwe e-Ukraine ngokukhawuleza.
