Le mibhikisho yangoMashi 25-27 yabanjwa kulo lonke elaseCanada ukumaka iminyaka eyi-8 yokungenelela okuholwa yiSaudi empini yaseYemen. Emadolobheni ayisithupha ezweni lonke kwaba nemibuthano, amamashi, kanye nezenzo zobumbano eziphikisana nokuzuza kweCanada ngempi ngokusebenzisana kwezikhali neSaudi Arabia ebiza izigidigidi zamaRandi. Le mali isize futhi ekuthengeni ukuthula komphakathi wezepolitiki wamazwe omhlaba ozungeze le mpi kwalimaza ngokusobala izakhamizi ezibanjwe engxabanweni njengoba impi yaseYemen idale enye yezinkinga ezinkulu zobuntu emhlabeni. I-UN ilinganisela ukuthi abantu abayizigidi ezingama-21.6 eYemen bazodinga usizo losizo nokuvikelwa ngo-2023, okungaba izingxenye ezintathu kwezine zabantu.
Ukungqubuzana kwaqala ngenxa yokushintshwa kwamandla okwenzeka ngesikhathi se-Arab Spring ngo-2011 phakathi kukaMongameli waseYemen, u-Ali Abdullah Saleh, nesekela lakhe, u-Abdrabbuh Mansur Hadi. Okwalandela kwaba yimpi yombango phakathi kukahulumeni neqembu elaziwa ngamaHouthi elasebenzisa leli thuba lokuba buthaka kukahulumeni omusha lathatha izintambo zokulawula isifundazwe saseSaada, lathatha inhlokodolobha yesizwe i-Sanaa. UHadi waphoqeleka ukuba abaleke ngoMashi 2015, ngaleso sikhathi izwe elingumakhelwane iSaudi Arabia nomfelandawonye wezinye izifundazwe zama-Arab njenge-United Arab Emirates (UAE), laqala ukuhlasela eYemen, lixosha ama-Houthi aphuma eningizimu yeYemen nakuba ayengaphumi ezweni. enyakatho yezwe noma Sanaa. Kusukela lapho impi iqhubekile, kwabulawa amashumi ezinkulungwane zezakhamizi, abaningi balimala kanye nama-80% abantu abadinga usizo losizo.
Naphezu kobunzima besimo kanye nesimo esaziwayo phakathi komphakathi wamazwe ngamazwe, abaholi bomhlaba bayaqhubeka nokuthumela izikhali eSaudi Arabia, umdlali oyinhloko kule ngxabano, esiza ekuqhubekiseni impi. ICanada iphakathi kwalawo mazwe, njengoba isithumele izikhali ezingaphezu kuka-$8 billion eSaudi Arabia kusukela ngo-2015. Imibiko ye-UN isikhombe kabili iCanada phakathi kwamazwe aqhuba impi, ubufakazi bokuthi isithombe seCanada njengomlindi wokuthula sesiphenduke inkumbulo efiphalayo. okungokoqobo. Isithombe esiphinde sonakaliswe izinga lamanje laseCanada njengele-16 eliphezulu ekuthengisweni kwezikhali emhlabeni ngokombiko wakamuva we-Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI). Lokhu kudluliswa kwezikhali kumele kume uma iCanada izobamba iqhaza ekumiseni impi, kanye ne-ejenti esebenzayo yokuthula.
Lokhu kuye kwamangaza nakakhulu uma kubhekwa ukushoda kwezimali ezinikezwe usizo lwezizwe ngezizwe kwisabelomali sakamuva sika-2023 uhulumeni weTrudeau asanda kusikhipha. Yize into eyodwa exhaswa kakhulu ngesabelomali sika-2023 amasosha, akhombisa ukuzibophezela kukahulumeni ekubhebhezeleni impi esikhundleni sokuthula.
Ngokungabi bikho kwenqubomgomo yezangaphandle enokuthula eMpumalanga Ephakathi ngezinye izizwe ezifana neCanada, iChina ingenele njengomenzi wokuthula. Baqale izingxoxo zokumisa ukudubula ezenze imvume evela eSaudi Arabia ehlanganisa izimfuno eziningi zamaHouthi. Kubandakanya ukuvula kokubili inhloko-dolobha yase-Sana'a ezindizeni kanye nechweba elikhulu elizovumela usizo olubalulekile ukuthi lufinyelele ezweni. Okunye okuxoxwe ngakho wukuthola imali kahulumeni ukuze bakwazi ukuholela abasebenzi babo, ngaphezu kokusimamisa umnotho. Lolu wuhlobo lomsebenzi okufanele ngabe iCanada iyawenza, okwenza kube nokuthula ngezingxoxo hhayi ngokuthumela izikhali eziningi.
