UMongameli Biden wabhala kwi ENew York Times ngoJuni 2022 ukuba iUnited States yayixhobe iUkraine ukuba "ilwe kwibala ledabi kwaye ibe kweyona ndawo inamandla kwitafile yothethathethwano."

Ukuwa kwe-Ukraine ngo-2022 ngokuchaseneyo kwayishiya ikwindawo eyomeleleyo, ukanti uBiden kunye namahlakani akhe e-NATO basakhetha ibala lokulwa ngaphezulu kwetafile yothethathethwano. Ngoku ke ukuhluleka I-Ukraine ede yalibaziseka "i-Spring Counteroffensive" ishiye i-Ukraine kwindawo ebuthathaka, zombini kwibala ledabi nakwitafile yothethathethwano engenanto.

Ke, ngokusekwe kwinkcazo kaBiden yeenjongo zemfazwe yase-US, umgaqo-nkqubo wakhe uyasilela, kwaye ngamakhulu amawaka amajoni ase-Ukraine, hayi abantu baseMelika, abahlawula ixabiso labo. imilenze nobomi babo.

Kodwa esi siphumo sasingalindelekanga. Kwaxelwa kwangaphambili kwiPentagon evuzayo amaxwebhu ezapapashwa ngokubanzi ngo-Epreli, nakuMongameli Zelenskyy ukumiswa kwetyala yokuhlaselwa ngoMeyi ukunqanda oko wakubiza ngokuba yilahleko “engamkelekanga”.

Ukulibaziseka kwavumela imikhosi yase-Ukraine ukuba igqibe uqeqesho lwe-NATO kwiitanki zaseNtshona kunye neenqwelo ezixhobileyo, kodwa ikwanike iRussia ixesha elongezelelekileyo lokuqinisa ukhuselo lwayo lokulwa netanki kunye nokulungiselela iindawo zokubulala eziyingozi kumda ongaphambili weemayile ezingama-700.

Ngoku, emva kweenyanga ezimbini, ulwahlulo olutsha lwaseUkraine oluxhobileyo luye lwahambela phambili kuphela iikhilomitha ezili-12 okanye ngaphantsi kwiindawo ezimbini ezincinci, ngeendleko zamashumi amawaka abantu abangxwelerhekileyo. Amashumi amabini eepesenti Izithuthi ezixhobileyo zaseNtshona kunye nezixhobo ezisanda kuthunyelwa zatshatyalaliswa kwiiveki ezimbalwa zokuqala zokuhlaselwa okutsha, njengoko Oqeqeshwe eBritani Izahlulo ezixhobileyo zazama ukuqhubela phambili kwiindawo zemigodi yaseRashiya kunye neendawo zokubulala ngaphandle kokususa iziqhushumbisi okanye i-air cover.

Ngeli xesha, iRussia yenza okufanayo intuthuko encinci ngaseKupyansk kwimpuma yeKharkiv kwiphondo, apho umhlaba ojikeleze idolophu Dvorichna itshintshe izandla okwesithathu emva kohlaselo. Olu tshintshiselwano lwe-tit-for-tat lwamaqhekeza amancinci ommandla, ngokusetyenziswa okukhulu kwezixhobo ezinzima kunye nelahleko eyoyikisayo, ngumzekelo wemfazwe ekhohlakeleyo yemfazwe engafaniyo neMfazwe yeHlabathi yokuQala.

I-counteroffensives e-Ukraine ephumelele ngakumbi ukuwa kokugqibela yavusa ingxoxo enzulu ngaphakathi kwe-NATO malunga nokuba yayilixesha lokuba iUkraine ibuyele kwi-NATO. itafile yothethathethwano yayilahlile eBritane nase-US ibongoza ngo-Epreli 2022. Njengoko imikhosi yaseUkraine iqhubela phambili eKherson ekuqaleni kukaNovemba, eLa Republicca eItali. umbiko ukuba iinkokeli ze-NATO zivumelene ukuba ukuwa kweKherson kuya kubeka i-Ukraine kwindawo yamandla ebeyilindele ukuba iqalise iingxoxo zoxolo.

Ngomhla we-9 kaNovemba ka-2022, kanye ngaloo mini iRashiya yayalela ukurhoxiswa kwayo ku-Kherson, uNjengele Mark Milley, uSihlalo weeNtloko zaBasebenzi eziManyeneyo, wathetha e iClub yezoQoqosho yaseNew York, apho udliwano-ndlebe wambuza ukuba ixesha ngoku lilungele uthethathethwano.

UNjengele Milley wathelekisa le meko neMfazwe Yehlabathi Yokuqala, ecacisa ukuba iinkokeli macala onke zaziqonda ngeKrismesi yowe-1914 ukuba loo mfazwe yayingenakoyiswa, ukanti zaqhubeka zisilwa eminye iminyaka emine, ziphindaphinda ubomi bezigidi ezaphulukana nobomi ngowe-1914 ukusa kwabangama-20 ezigidi ngowe-1918. ukutshabalalisa ubukhosi obuhlanu kunye nokubeka inqanaba lokunyuka kwe-fascism kunye neMfazwe Yehlabathi yesiBini.

UMilley waqukumbela ibali lakhe lokulumkisa ngokuqaphela ukuba, njengakwi-1914, “... Kwaye ke, kufuneka ujike kwezinye iindlela… Ke izinto zinokuba mbi ngakumbi. Ngoko xa kukho ithuba lokuthethathethana, xa uxolo lunokufumaneka, lithabathe, lithabathe elo xesha.”

Kodwa uMilley kunye namanye amazwi amava abazange bahoywe. Kwintetho ka-Biden kaFebruwari yeNtetho yoManyano kwiNkomfa, ubuso bukaGeneral Milley yayisisifundo sokuxhuzula, ilitye kulwandle lokuzivuyisa ngokungafanelekanga kunye nokungazi kwehlabathi lokwenyani ngaphaya kwentente yesekisi, apho iqhinga lemfazwe elingavisisaniyo laseNtshona lalingekuphela nje. Ukuncama ubomi baseUkraine yonke imihla kodwa bedlala ngemfazwe yenyukliya. UMilley akazange ancume ubusuku bonke, naxa iBiden weza ngapha ukuvuya emva kwentetho yakhe.

Akukho nkokeli zase-US, NATO okanye zaseUkraine eziye zaphenduliswa ngokusilela ukubamba loo mzuzu ebusika obudlulileyo, okanye yangaphambili ndiphoswe lithuba ngoxolo ngo-Epreli ka-2022, xa i-US kunye ne-UK zavala ukulamla kweTurkey kunye ne-Israel eyasondela kakhulu ekuziseni uxolo, ngokusekwe umgaqo olula Ukurhoxa kweRussia ukutshintshiselana nokungathathi hlangothi kweUkraine. Akukho mntu uye wafuna ingxelo enzulu yokuba kutheni iinkokeli zaseNtshona zivumela la mathuba oxolo atyhutyhe eminweni yabo.

Nokuba bacinga ntoni na, isiphumo sesokuba iUkraine ibanjiswe emfazweni ngaphandle kokuphuma. Xa iUkraine yayibonakala ngathi inesandla esiphezulu emfazweni, iinkokeli ze-NATO zazizimisele ukucinezela inzuzo yazo kwaye ziqalise enye into ekhubekisayo, nokuba zingakanani na iindleko ezothusayo zabantu. Kodwa ngoku njengoko ukuthunyelwa kwezixhobo ezintsha kunye nezixhobo kuphumelele kuphela ekuvezeni ubuthathaka beqhinga laseNtshona kunye nokubuyisela inyathelo eRussia, abayili bokusilela bayala uthethathethwano ukusuka kwindawo yobuthathaka.

Ke ungquzulwano luwele kwipatheni enganyangekiyo eqhelekileyo kwiimfazwe ezininzi, apho onke amaqela okulwa-iRussia, iUkraine kunye namalungu aphambili kumanyano lomkhosi we-NATO-aye akhuthazwa, okanye sinokuthi silahlekisiwe, yimpumelelo elinganiselweyo kwiindawo ezahlukeneyo. amaxesha, ekwandiseni imfazwe kunye nokwala idiplomacy, ngaphandle kweendleko ezothusayo zoluntu, ukunyuka kwengozi yemfazwe ebanzi kunye nobungozi obukhoyo bokungqubana kwenyukliya.

Kodwa ubunyani bemfazwe bubeka elubala ukuphikisana komgaqo-nkqubo waseNtshona. Ukuba i-Ukraine ayivumelekanga ukuxoxisana neRashiya ukusuka kwindawo yamandla, okanye ukusuka kwindawo yobuthathaka, yintoni emi endleleni yokutshatyalaliswa kwayo ngokupheleleyo?

Kwaye i-Ukraine namahlakani ayo ingayoyisa njani iRussia, ilizwe elinomgaqo-nkqubo wezixhobo zenyukliya ichaza ngokucacileyo ukuba iya kusebenzisa izixhobo zenyukliya ngaphambi kokuba yamkele ukoyiswa okukhoyo?

Ukuba, njengoko uBiden elumkisile, nayiphi na imfazwe phakathi eUnited States naseRashiya, okanye naluphi na ukusetyenziswa yezixhobo zenyukliya “ezinobuchule”, ngaba inokunyukela kwimfazwe yenyukliya epheleleyo, apho ukhoyo umgaqo-nkqubo wangoku wokunyuka okunyukayo kunye nokubandakanyeka okuhlala kusanda kwe-US kunye ne-NATO ekujongwe ukukhokela?

Ngaba bathandazela nje ukuba iRashiya ihlasele, okanye inikezele? Okanye ngaba bazimisele ukubiza ubuqhophololo baseRashiya baze bayityhale kukhetho olungenakuphepheka phakathi kokoyiswa ngokupheleleyo nemfazwe yenyukliya? Ukuba nethemba, okanye ukuzenza ngathi, iUkraine namahlakani ayo inokuyoyisa iRashiya ngaphandle kokubangela imfazwe yenyukliya ayiloqhinga.

Endaweni yesicwangciso sokusombulula ungquzulwano, iUnited States kunye namahlakani ayo basebenzise impembelelo yendalo ukuxhathisa ubundlongo baseRashiya kwisicwangciso sase-US neseBritane sokwandisa imfazwe ngokungenammiselo. Imiphumo yeso sigqibo yingozi yamakhulu amawaka eUkraine nokutshatyalaliswa ngokuthe ngcembe kweUkraine zizigidi zeembumbulu ezidubula macala omabini.

Ukusukela ekupheleni kweMfazwe Yomlomo Yokuqala, oorhulumente baseMelika abalandelelanayo, iDemocratic Republic, kunye neRiphabhlikhi, baye benza impazamo enkulu malunga nokukwazi kweUnited States ukunyanzelisa ukuthanda kwayo kwamanye amazwe kunye nabantu. Iingcamango zabo ezingalunganga malunga namandla aseMelika kunye nokuphakama komkhosi kuye kwasikhokelela kule ngxaki inzima, eyimbali kumgaqo-nkqubo wangaphandle wase-US.

Ngoku iCongress icelwa enye i-24 yeebhiliyoni zeedola ukuze iqhubeke nokuphembelela le mfazwe. Endaweni yoko kufuneka baphulaphule uninzi lwabantu baseMelika, abathi, ngokutsho kwamva nje Uvoto lwe-CNN, bachase inkxaso-mali eyongezelelekileyo yemfazwe engenakuphumelela. Bafanele bawathobele amazwi kaYehova isibhengezo ngamaqela oluntu kumazwe angama-32 efuna ukuba kupheliswe imfazwe ngokukhawuleza kunye nokuthethathethana ngoxolo ukuphelisa imfazwe ngaphambi kokuba itshabalalise iUkraine kwaye ibeke esichengeni bonke abantu.
