Izishoshovu eNingizimu Korea zazijabule futhi zinethemba lokuthi ukukhethwa kukaMongameli okhululekile uMoon Jae-in kungase kusize ekwehliseni ukungezwani kule nhlonhlo. Babenethemba lokuthi uzovimba ukuthunyelwa okwengeziwe kwe-THAAD (i-Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) yokuvikela imicibisholo ecasulayo futhi afune nokuthi i-US ihoxise amayunithi amabili okwethulwa kwe-THAAD aphuthunyiswe eSeongju (186 miles eningizimu yeSeoul) phakathi nendawo. ebusuku ngaphambi nje kokhetho lwakhe lwakamuva.
Kepha akuthathanga isikhathi eside ukuthi i-US ithole ukuthi ngubani umphathi enhlonhlweni yaseKorea njengeNyanga ngesonto eledlule wayala abasizi bakhe ukuthi baqale izingxoxo nozakwabo baseMelika ekuthumeleni iziqhumane ezine ezengeziwe ze-THAAD, ebuyela esinqumweni sakhe sokuthi uhulumeni waseKorea uzobambezela izinhlelo ezengeziwe zokuthunyelwa ngezinyanga eziyi-10 kuye kweziyi-15.
UMoon uthe iNingizimu Korea ne-US bazobamba iqhaza "embukisweni onamandla kakhulu wamasosha". Esinqumweni sikaMoon sokuthumela ezinye iziqhumane zeselula ezine, abasizi bakhe bathi kuzoba "ukuthunyelwa kwesikhashana."
Impela…..
Kunzima kakhulu ukubona umehluko omkhulu phakathi kwesivumelwano sikaMoon ne-US kanye nalokho kukaMongameli Park ophiko lwesokudla odlule owake wabekwa icala ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ezedlule. Uguquko lwamakhandlela eSouth Korea, obekungamandla aphusha iPark ngaphandle kweBlue House, kufanele kudumazeke kakhulu kulezi zimemezelo zakamuva zeNyanga.
Umuntu oyedwa ongaphoxekile ngokujikela kweNyanga ohlangothini olumnyama nguNdunankulu waseJapan u-Minsiter Shinzo Abe (umzukulu wowayengumholi wamafascist we-WW II ekhabhinethi lempi yaseJapani owathathwa iChina “njengesigebengu sempi se-Class A.”) Ukuthula kwaseJapane. ukunyakaza namuhla kubheka u-Abe njenge-fascist.
U-Abe ubike ukuthi ekuguqukeni kwakhe noDonald Trump umshicileli wase-US ufunge ukuthi uzothatha “zonke izinyathelo ezidingekayo” ukuvikela iJapan kanye namanye amadlelandawonye aseMelika ngemuva kokuhlolwa kwemicibisholo yaseNyakatho Korea ngesonto eledlule. I-US kanye neJapan bachaza lowo mcibisholo njenge-missile ye-intercontinental ballistic (ICBM) kanti iRussia ithe bekuwumcibisholo ophakathi nendawo ongakwazi ukufinyelela e-US.
Ukuhlolwa kwaba isizathu esanele sokuba I-US izothumela amabhomu amabili enuzi i-B-1 phezu kwenhlonhlo yaseKorea. Umkhuzi wamasosha asemoyeni asePacific, uGeneral Terrence O'Shaughnessy, uxwayise amayunithi akhe asekulungele ukushaya iNorth Korea "ngamandla asheshayo, abulalayo, nanamandla amakhulu".
Ngamanye amazwi i-US isikulungele ukuqala impi yenuzi.
Kuyadabukisa ukubona uMnu. Moon efulathela ngokushesha kangaka ezithembisweni zakhe zangaphambili zokucabanga kabusha nge-THAAD futhi amukele ngokulangazela ukukhuthaza okungapheli kwe-US eNyakatho Korea. Imidlalo yempi yase-US-South Korea eduze komngcele we-North Korea kumele ihlale yenza i-Pyongyang izibuze ukuthi ngabe yiyona yini lena - ingabe lesi yisikhathi lapho i-US ne-South Korea zizokwethula isiteleka sabo 'sokunqunywa' okuvame ukusongelwa?
Ngingathemba kuphela ukuthi umphakathi wezishoshovu eNingizimu Korea nasentshonalanga uzokhohlwa ukunikeza uMnu. Moon iholidi lomshado. Sekuvele kusobala ukuthi uhlose ukulandela imiyalo evela eWashington futhi aqhubeke nendima kaSeoul njengozakwethu omncane kuphrojekthi yempi yaseMelika e-Asia-Pacific.
I-China, iRussia kanye neNyakatho Korea zixwayiswe futhi ziqaphele….
