UBiden noJohnson ngo-Ephreli bacindezela i-Ukraine ukuthi ihoxise izingxoxo zokuthula neRussia.
Ngemuva kokuhambela kwakamuva kukaMengameli waseFrance u-Emmanuel Macron eWashington, uMengameli waseMelika uJoe Biden ugcine ethe "ukulungele ukukhuluma" noVladimir Putin ngempi yase-Ukraine uma umengameli waseRussia ekhombisa intshisekelo yokuletha umbango wezinyanga eziyisishiyagalolunye ezweni. ukuphela (“I-US ilindele ukulwa okuqinile kwe-Ukraine ukuthi kuqhubeke izinyanga”, Disemba 4).
Ngakho sonke masithandazele ukuthula, hhayi e-Ukraine kuphela kodwa nasemhlabeni wonke. Kodwa-ke, iqiniso liwukuthi kwakunguBiden owathi ngoDisemba 2021 wenqaba ukuxoxisana ngesinqumo esinokuthula senkinga yase-Ukraine, uPutin ayeyihlongoze. Le mpi engenangqondo yayingeke yenzeke kodwa ngaleso sikhathi owayeyiphini likamongameli uBiden kanye nonobhala wakhe owaziwayo, uVictoria Nuland, owathi ngo-2013/2014 wahlela ngamabomu ukuvukela kukaMaidan “kokushintsha kombuso” e-Ukraine, nodlame olwalandela.
I-CIA, ngokubambisana ne-neo-Nazis ehlangene no-Stepan Bandera ongasekho, igcine isiteshi esisebenza kakhulu e-Ukraine kusukela ngo-1948. Inhloso yayo kwakuwukudicilela phansi iSoviet Union, futhi kusukela ngo-1991 eRussia. Umyeni kaNuland, uRobert Kagan, uvele waba ngumsunguli we-Project for the New American Century (PNAC). Ngakho-ke, wagqugquzela iminyaka engu-20 edlule "izimpi zaphakade" zaseMelika ngokumelene ne-Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria kanye nomphumela wokucekelwa phansi kwalawa namanye amazwe.
Ibhizinisi lempi laseMelika alinandaba nokuthi lilethela luphi usizi emhlabeni wonke inqobo nje uma inzuzo ibuyela kulokho umongameli uDwight Eisenhower ngo-1961 akuchaza ngokuthi "isakhiwo sezempi nezimboni", lapho uBiden abe ngumdlali obalulekile khona. Congress iminyaka eminingi.
KwakunguBiden kanye nohlanya ngokulinganayo kodwa manje owayengundunankulu waseBrithani u-Boris Johnson okwathi ngo-Ephreli 2022 wacindezela umongameli wase-Ukraine uVolodymyr Zelensky ukuthi ahoxise izingxoxo zokuthula neRussia, ezazilamulelwa eTurkey. Njengoba uZelensky ngokwakhe esememezele, impi yaqala eminyakeni eyisishiyagalombili edlule ngemuva kokuketulwa umbuso kukaMaidan, hhayi ngoFebhuwari njengoba kuvezwe kwabezindaba.
Ukuthatheka kukaBiden kanye nemizamo yobudedengu yokucekela phansi iRussia kwezempi nakwezomnotho ibuyisele emuva, kodwa kube nemiphumela emibi e-Ukraine kanye ne-EU kanye nomhlaba. Alinganiselwa ku-100,000 amasosha ase-Ukraine kanye nezakhamizi zase-Ukraine ezingama-20,000 asebebulewe kusukela ngoFebhuwari. Umnotho wase-Ukraine uwile. Izigidi zabantu base-Ukraine zibhekene neqhwa nokufa kulobu busika. NgoFebhuwari noma ngoMashi 2023 uZelensky ngeke abe nanketho ngaphandle kokuzinikela kunoma yini efunwa yiRussia. I-US manje ibhekene nokululazeka okukhulu kune-fiasco yangonyaka odlule e-Afghanistan.
Kunezikhungo zezempi zase-US ezingaphezu kuka-850 eYurophu, e-Asia nase-Afrika eziqondise eRussia naseChina. Inhloso yabo ukusebenzisa ukuduka kwe-PNAC “kwesiphetho esibonakalayo” saseMelika sombuso wezezimali womhlaba kanye nezempi. Lezi zisekelo kufanele zivalwe futhi i-Nato ihlakazwe. Ngokuhambisana ne-UN kanye neNkantolo Yezobulungiswa Yamazwe Ngamazwe, i-Afrika kumele igcizelele ukuthi kuvalwe ngokushesha isizinda se-US Air Force e-Diego Garcia e-Chagos Islands, kanye nokuqedwa kwe-US Command for Africa (Africom), umsebenzi wayo ukuthunaza. leli zwekazi.
