Inqubomgomo Yezangaphandle KaBiden Icwilisa I-Congressional Dems-ne-Ukraine

UMongameli uJoe Biden ubukela phansi amathemba eqembu lakhe ngenqubomgomo yezangaphandle enephutha kakhulu. UBiden ukholelwa ukuthi isithunzi somhlaba wonke saseMelika sisengcupheni yeMpi yase-Ukraine futhi ubelokhu enqaba i-off-ramp. Impi yase-Ukraine, kuhlanganiswe nokuphazamiseka kwabaphathi kubudlelwano bezomnotho neChina, ibhebhethekisa ukuntengantenga okungahle kulethe indlu eyodwa noma zombili zeCongress kumaRiphabhulikhi. Okubi nakakhulu, ukuxoshwa kukaBiden kwezokuxhumana kwandisa ukubhujiswa kwe-Ukraine futhi kusongela impi yenuzi.

UBiden wazuza njengefa umnotho okhungethwe ukuphazamiseka okujulile kwamaketanga okuhlinzekwa komhlaba wonke okudalwe yilolu bhubhane kanye nezinqubomgomo zohwebo eziguquguqukayo zikaTrump. Kodwa esikhundleni sokuzama ukuthulisa amanzi nokulungisa ukuphazamiseka, iBiden yandisa izingxabano zase-US neRussia neChina.

UBiden uhlasele uMholi weRepublican House Minority uKevin McCarthy ngokuzwakalisa ukungabaza kwelinye iphakethe elikhulu lezezimali lase-Ukraine, ememezela: “[Ama-House Republican] athi uma enqoba, cishe ngeke axhase—ukusiza—aqhubeke nokuxhasa ngezimali i-Ukraine, impi yase-Ukraine ngokumelene namaRussia. Lezi zinsizwa aziyitholi. Kukhulu kakhulu kune-Ukraine—kuseMpumalanga Yurophu. I-NATO. Kuyimiphumela yangempela, ebucayi, ebucayi. Abanayo inqubomgomo yezangaphandle yaseMelika. ” Ngokufanayo, lapho iqembu lamaDemocrats athuthukayo linxusa izingxoxo zokuqeda iMpi yase-Ukraine, bajatshuliswa amaDemocrats elandela umugqa we-White House futhi baphoqeleka ukuthi bahoxise isicelo sabo sokuxoxisana.

UBiden ukholelwa ukuthi ukwethembeka kweMelika kuncike ekukhuleni kwe-NATO iye e-Ukraine, futhi uma kunesidingo, yehlule iRussia empini yase-Ukraine ukufeza lokho. UBiden wenqabile kaningi ukuzibandakanya nezokuxhumana neRussia ngodaba lokukhulisa i-NATO. Lokhu kube yiphutha elikhulu. Kuqubule impi yommeleli phakathi kwe-US neRussia lapho i-Ukraine icekelwa phansi, okuxakayo egameni lokusindisa i-Ukraine.

Lonke udaba lokwandiswa kwe-NATO lusekelwe emangeni ase-US asukela kuma-1990s. I-US kanye neJalimane wathembisa Gorbachev ukuthi i-NATO izohamba "hhayi iyintshi eyodwa ngasempumalanga" uma uGorbachev ezohlakaza umfelandawonye wezempi weSoviet Warsaw Pact futhi amukele ukuhlangana kabusha kweJalimane. I-Convenientl - kanye nokugxeka okujwayelekile - i-US yahoxa esivumelwaneni.

Ngo-2021, iBiden yayingase iqale iMpi yase-Ukraine ngaphandle kokudela noma iyiphi inzalo ebalulekile yase-US noma yase-Ukraine. Ukuphepha kwe-US akuxhomekile ekwandiseni i-NATO e-Ukraine naseGeorgia. Eqinisweni, ukukhuliswa kwe-NATO ekujuleni kwesifunda soLwandle Olumnyama kubukela phansi ukuphepha kwe-US ngokubeka i-US ekubhekaneni ngqo neRussia (kanye nokwephulwa okwengeziwe kwezithembiso ezenziwa emashumini amathathu eminyaka ngaphambili). Futhi ukuphepha kwe-Ukraine akuncikile ekwandiseni i-NATO, iphuzu uMongameli Volodymyr Zelensky avume izikhathi eziningi.

UMongameli waseRussia uVladimir Putin usexwayise i-US kaningi kusukela ngo-2008 ukuthi ivimbe i-NATO e-Ukraine, okuyisifunda esibaluleke kakhulu kwezokuphepha eRussia. UBiden ugcizelele ngokulinganayo ekwandiseni i-NATO. U-Putin wenza i-diplomatic eyodwa yokugcina ekupheleni kuka-2021 ukumisa ukukhuliswa kwe-NATO. UBiden wamenqaba ngokuphelele. Lena kwakuyinqubomgomo yezangaphandle eyingozi.

Njengoba osopolitiki abaningi baseMelika bengafuni ukukuzwa, isexwayiso sikaPutin mayelana nokwandiswa kwe-NATO sasingokoqobo futhi sifanelekile. I-Russia ayifuni amasosha e-NATO ahlome kakhulu emngceleni wayo, njengoba nje ne-US ingeke yamukele amasosha aseMexico asekelwa yiChina emngceleni we-US-Mexico. Into yokugcina edingwa yi-US neYurophu yimpi ende neRussia. Nokho kulapho nje ukuphikelela kukaBiden ekwandiseni i-NATO e-Ukraine kwenzeke.

I-US ne-Ukraine kufanele zamukele imigomo emithathu enengqondo yokuqeda impi: ukungathathi hlangothi kwezempi kwe-Ukraine; I-de facto yaseRussia ibambelele eCrimea, ikhaya lemikhumbi yayo yemikhumbi yasoLwandle Olumnyama kusukela ngo-1783; kanye nokuzimela okuxoxiswene ngakho ezifundeni zobuzwe-Russian, njengoba kwakubiziwe ezivumelwaneni zaseMinsk kodwa i-Ukraine ehlulekile ukuzisebenzisa.

Esikhundleni salolu hlobo lomphumela onengqondo, i-Biden Administration itshele kaningi i-Ukraine ukuthi iqhubeke. Kuthele amanzi abandayo ezingxoxweni ngoMashi, lapho abantu base-Ukraine babecabanga ukuphela kwempi okuxoxiswana nabo kodwa esikhundleni salokho basuka etafuleni lezingxoxo. I-Ukraine ihlupheka kakhulu ngenxa yalokho, namadolobha ayo nengqalasizinda sehle yaba imfucumfucu, futhi amashumi ezinkulungwane zamasosha ase-Ukraine afa ezimpini ezalandela. Kuzo zonke izikhali ze-NATO ezihlonishwayo, iRussia isanda kucekela phansi ingxenye yengqalasizinda yamandla yase-Ukraine.

Okwamanje, unswinyo oluholwa yi-US lwezohwebo nezezimali olubhekiswe eRussia luye lwakhula. Ngokunqamuka kokugeleza kwamandla e-Russia, i-Europe isenkingeni ejulile yezomnotho, enezimo ezingezinhle emnothweni wase-US. Ukucekelwa phansi kwepayipi le-Nord Stream kwajulisa nakakhulu inkinga yase-Europe. Ngokusho kweRussia, lokhu kwenziwa yizisebenzi zase-UK, kodwa cishe ngokuqinisekile ngokubamba iqhaza kwe-US. Masikhumbule ukuthi ngoFebhuwari, Biden wathi ukuthi uma iRussia ihlasela i-Ukraine, “Sizoyiqeda [i-Nord Stream].” “Ngiyakwethembisa,” kusho uBiden, “sizokwazi ukukwenza.”

Inqubomgomo yezangaphandle ye-Biden enephutha nayo ilethe lokho izizukulwane zosomaqhinga benqubomgomo yezangaphandle ezivela kuHenry Kissinger kanye noZbigniew Brzezinski: ukushayela iRussia neChina ekwamukeleni okuqinile. Ukwenze lokho ngokubhebhethekisa ngendlela emangalisayo impi ebandayo neChina ngesikhathi esifanayo lapho ephishekela impi eshisayo neRussia.

Kusukela ekuqaleni kobuMongameli bakhe, uBiden wanqamula ngokuphelele ukuxhumana neChina, wasusa izingxabano ezintsha mayelana nenqubomgomo yaseMelika eyi-One China, ephindelela wacela ukudayiswa kwezikhali okukhulu eTaiwan, futhi wasebenzisa umthetho wokuvinjelwa kokuthunyelwa kwezikhali emhlabeni wonke eChina. Womabili la maqembu ahlanganyele kule nqubomgomo emelene neChina edala uzinzo, kodwa izindleko ziwukuwohloza okwengeziwe komhlaba, kanye nomnotho wase-US.

Sekukonke, iBiden yazuza njengefa isandla esinzima sezomnotho — ubhubhane, imali eyeqile ye-Fed eyadalwa ngo-2020, ukushoda kwesabelomali okukhulu ngo-2020, kanye nokungezwani komhlaba okwakukhona ngaphambili. Nokho usezibhebhethekise kakhulu izinkinga zezomnotho nezwe kunokuthi azixazulule. Sidinga ukuguqulwa kwenqubomgomo yangaphandle. Ngemuva kokhetho, kuzoba nesikhathi esibalulekile sokuhlolwa kabusha. Abantu baseMelika kanye nomhlaba badinga ukuvuselelwa komnotho, idiplomacy, nokuthula.
