I-US ivimbe ivoti kwisigqibo sebhunga lezokhuselo le-UN ebiza ukumiswa komhlaba wonke ngexesha lesibetho se-Covid-19, kuba ulawulo lukaTrump luchasile ukubhekiswa ngokungathanga ngqo kwi-World Health Organisation.

Ibhunga lezokhuseleko sele lithe lahlala ngaphezulu kweeveki ezintandathu kwisigqibo, esijongelwe ukubonisa inkxaso yehlabathi umnxeba yokuphelisa umlilo ngunobhala jikelele we-UN, u-António Guterres. Owona mthombo wokulibaziseka yayikukungavumi kwe-US ukuxhasa isisombululo esathi saxhasa intsebenzo ye-WHO ngexesha lobhubhani we-coronavirus.

UDonald Trump unayo batyhola i-WHO ngesibetho, ebanga (ngaphandle kobungqina obuxhasayo) ukuba babambe ulwazi kwiintsuku zokuqala zokuqhuma.

I-China yanyanzelisa ukuba isisombululo kufuneka sibandakanye ukukhankanywa kunye nokuqinisekiswa kwe-WHO.

NgoLwesine ebusuku, oonozakuzaku baseFrance bacinga ukuba benze i-designation apho isisombululo singachaza "i-arhente zezempilo ezikhethekileyo" (ngokungangqalanga, ukuba ngokucacileyo, kubhekiswa kwi-WHO).

Umyalezo wase-Russia utyikitye ukuba ufuna igatya elifuna ukuba kuphakanyiswe isohlwayo esichaphazela ukuhanjiswa koncedo lwezonyango, isalathiso Amanyathelo ohlwayo aseMelika abekwe kwi-Iran neVenezuela. Nangona kunjalo, uninzi loonozakuzaku bekomiti yezokhuseleko bakholelwa ekubeni iMoscow iyakusirhoxisa isichaso okanye ivote endaweni yokuba isengozini yokuba sisigqibo sokuphela kwemfazwe.

NgoLwesine ebusuku, kwavela ukuba isisombululo sokungathobeki sixhaswa ngumsebenzi wase-US, kodwa ngolwesihlanu ngolwesihlanu, eso sikhundla satshintsha kwaye i-US "yathula" kwisigqibo, iphakamisa ibinzana elithi "iiarhente zezempilo", kunye nokuvinjwa intshukumo ibheke kwivoti.

"Besiyiqonda ukuba kukho isivumelwano kulento kodwa kubonakala ngathi batshintshe iingqondo zabo," uthethe watsho wezopolitiko webhunga lezokhuseleko.

“Ngokucacileyo batshintshe iingqondo zabo ngaphakathi kwenkqubo yaseMelika ukuze amagama angabakulungelanga,” watsho omnye wozakuzaku kufutshane neengxoxo. "Kungenzeka ukuba bafuna nje ixesha elingakumbi lokuzinza phakathi kwabo, okanye mhlawumbi umntu othile ophezulu kakhulu uthathe isigqibo abangasifuni, kwaye ngenxa yoko akusayi kwenzeka. Akukaziwa ngoku, yeyiphi.

Isithethi somsebenzi we-US kwi-UN sicebise ukuba, ukuba isisombululo sikhankanye umsebenzi we-WHO, kuya kufuneka ukuba sibandakanye ulwimi oluxekileyo malunga nendlela i-China kunye ne-WHO abaye bayiqhuba ngayo ubhubhane.

"Ngokombono wethu, ibhunga kufuneka liqhubeke nesisombululo esikhawulelwe ukuxhasa umlilo, okanye isigqibo esibanzi esijongene ngokupheleleyo nesidingo sokuzibophelela kwamalungu okusobala ekuzibekeni elubala nasekuphenduleni kwimeko ye-Covid-19. Ukunyaniseka kunye nedatha ethembekileyo ibalulekile ekuncedeni umhlaba ukulwa lo bhubhane uqhubekayo, kwaye olandelayo, "utshilo isithethi.

Ngelixa amandla esisombululo ebeya kuthi abe ngumfuziselo, ibiya kuba ngumqondiso ngexesha elibalulekileyo. Ukususela uGuterres wenza umnxeba wakhe wokuphelisa umlo wehlabathi, amaqela axhobileyo ngaphakathi ngaphezu kweshumi Amazwe abukele uqhankqalazo lwexeshana. Ukungabikho kwesigqibo esivela kumazwe anamandla ehlabathi, nangona kunjalo, kuyayitshitshisa imo yokuziphatha kukanobhala jikelele kwiinzame zakhe zokugcina ezo zinto zinqabileyo.

Ientetho ziya kuqhubeka kwiveki ezayo kwibhunga lezokhuseleko ukuvavanya ukuba ingaba ikhona enye na indlela ejongene nokungqubana.
