Ezinyangeni eziyisithupha ezedlule, iRussia yahlasela i-Ukraine. I-United States, NATO kanye ne-European Union (EU) bazisonge ngefulegi lase-Ukraine, bakhipha izigidigidi zokuthunyelwa kwezikhali, base befaka unswinyo olunzima okuhloswe ngalo ukujezisa kanzima iRussia ngodlame lwayo.
Kusukela lapho, abantu base-Ukraine bebelokhu bekhokha inani lale mpi abangayicabanga abambalwa abasekeli babo eNtshonalanga. Izimpi azilandeli imibhalo, futhi iRussia, i-Ukraine, i-United States, i-NATO kanye ne-European Union zonke zihlangabezane nezingqinamba ebezingalindelekile.
Izijeziso zaseNtshonalanga zibe nemiphumela exubile, zidale umonakalo omkhulu kwezomnotho e-Europe kanye naseRussia, kanti ukuhlasela kanye nokusabela kwamazwe aseNtshonalanga kukho kuhlangene kwadala inkinga yokudla kulo lonke elaseNingizimu ye-Global. Njengoba kusondela ubusika, ithemba lezinye izinyanga eziyisithupha zempi kanye nezigwegwe lisongela ukuphonsa iYurophu enkingeni enkulu yamandla kanye namazwe ampofu kakhulu endlaleni. Ngakho-ke kuyintshisekelo yabo bonke abathintekayo ukuthi baphinde bahlole ngokuphuthumayo amathuba okuqeda le ngxabano edonsa isikhathi eside.
Kulabo abathi izingxoxo azinakwenzeka, kufanele sibheke kuphela izingxoxo ezenzeka ngenyanga yokuqala ngemuva kokuhlasela kweRussia, lapho iRussia ne-Ukraine zivuma uhlelo lokuthula lwamaphuzu ayishumi nanhlanu ezingxoxweni ezilamule yiTurkey. Imininingwane bekusafanele isetshenzwe, kodwa uhlaka kanye nentando yezepolitiki bekukhona.
I-Russia yayisilungele ukuhoxa kulo lonke elase-Ukraine, ngaphandle kwaseCrimea kanye nama-republic ase-Donbas. I-Ukraine yayikulungele ukulahla ubulungu be-NATO besikhathi esizayo futhi yamukele isikhundla sokungathathi hlangothi phakathi kweRussia ne-NATO.
Uhlaka okuvunyelwene ngalo luhlinzekele izinguquko zezombusazwe eCrimea naseDonbas ukuthi izinhlangothi zombili zizokwamukela futhi zibone, ngokusekelwe ekuzinqumeni kwabantu balezo zifunda. Ukuvikeleka kwesikhathi esizayo kwe-Ukraine kwakuzoqinisekiswa iqembu lamanye amazwe, kodwa i-Ukraine yayingeke ibambe izizinda zamasosha angaphandle endaweni yayo.
NgoMashi 27, uMongameli Zelenskyy utshele izwe Izithameli ze-TV, “Umgomo wethu usobala—ukuthula nokubuyisela ukuphila okuvamile endaweni yakithi ngokushesha ngangokunokwenzeka.” Wabeka "imigqa ebomvu" yakhe yezingxoxo ku-TV ukuze aqinisekise abantu bakhe ukuthi ngeke avume kakhulu, futhi wabathembisa inhlolovo mayelana nesivumelwano sokungathathi hlangothi ngaphambi kokuba siqale ukusebenza.
Impumelelo enjalo yokuqala yesinyathelo sokuthula kwaba akumangazi kochwepheshe bokuxazulula izingxabano. Ithuba elingcono kakhulu lesivumelwano sokuthula okuxoxiswane ngaso ngokuvamile kuba phakathi nezinyanga zokuqala zempi. Inyanga ngayinye lapho impi iqhubeka khona inikeza amathuba ancishisiwe okuthula, njengoba uhlangothi ngalunye luqokomisa izenzo zonya zolunye, ubutha buyagxila futhi nezikhundla ziba lukhuni.
Ukuyekwa kwaleyo sinyathelo sokuqala sokuthula kumi njengenye yezinhlekelele ezinkulu zale ngxabano, futhi izinga eliphelele laleyo nhlekelele lizocaca ngokuhamba kwesikhathi njengoba impi iqhubeka kanye nemiphumela yayo esabekayo inqwabelana.
Imithombo yase-Ukraine neyaseTurkey iveze ukuthi ohulumeni base-UK nabase-US badlale indima ebalulekile ekuqedeni lawo mathemba okuqala okuthula. Ngesikhathi uNdunankulu wase-UK u-Boris Johnson "evakashele ngokumangala" e-Kyiv ngo-Ephreli 9, kuthiwa watshela UNdunankulu uZelenskyy ukuthi i-UK "yayisekuyo isikhathi eside," ukuthi ngeke ibe yingxenye yanoma yisiphi isivumelwano phakathi kweRussia ne-Ukraine, nokuthi "iNtshonalanga Ehlangene" yabona ithuba "lokucindezela" iRussia futhi yayizimisele ukwenza. okuningi kwakho.
Umlayezo ofanayo uphinde waphindwa nguNobhala Wezokuvikela wase-US u-Austin, owalandela uJohnson waya eKyiv ngo-Ephreli 25 futhi wakubeka kwacaca ukuthi i-US ne-NATO babengasazami nje ukusiza i-Ukraine ukuthi izivikele kodwa manje sebezibophezele ekusebenziseni impi ukuze "ibe buthakathaka" Russia. Osopolitiki baseTurkey utshele inxusa laseBrithani osewathatha umhlalaphansi u-Craig Murray ukuthi le miyalezo evela e-US nase-UK yabulala imizamo yabo eyayithembisa ukulamula ukuqeda ukulwa nesinqumo sezikhulu.
Ukusabela kulokhu kuhlasela, iningi lomphakathi emazweni aseNtshonalanga lamukela isibopho sokuziphatha sokusekela i-Ukraine njengesisulu sonya lwaseRussia. Kodwa isinqumo sohulumeni baseMelika nabaseBrithani sokubulala izingxoxo zokuthula nokwandisa impi, nakho konke ukwesaba, ubuhlungu nosizi oluthinta abantu base-Ukraine, asizange sichazwe emphakathini, noma sigunyazwe ukuvumelana kwamazwe e-NATO. . UJohnson wathi ukhulumela “iNtshonalanga ehlangene,” kodwa ngoMeyi, abaholi baseFrance, eJalimane nase-Italy bonke benza izitatimende zomphakathi eziphikisana nesicelo sakhe.
Ekhuluma nePhalamende laseYurophu ngoMeyi 9, uMongameli waseFrance u-Emmanuel Macron kumenyezelwe, “Asilwi neRussia,” nokuthi umsebenzi weYurophu “kwakuwukuma ne-Ukraine ukuze kufinyelelwe esivumelwaneni sokuqeda impi, bese kwakhiwe ukuthula.”
Umhlangano noMongameli Biden eWhite House ngoMeyi 10, uNdunankulu wase-Italy uMario Draghi utshele abezindaba, “Abantu… bafuna ukucabanga ngokuthi kungenzeka kunqandwe impi futhi baqale futhi izingxoxo ezithembekile. Yiso isimo njengamanje. Ngicabanga ukuthi kufanele sicabange sijule ngokuthi singabhekana kanjani nalokhu.”
Ngemuva kokukhuluma ngocingo noMongameli uPutin ngoMeyi 13, uChancellor waseJalimane u-Olaf Scholz wabhala kuTwitter ukuthi etshela uPutin, "Kumelwe kube nokumiswa kwezikhali e-Ukraine ngokushesha okukhulu."
Kodwa izikhulu zaseMelika nezaseBrithani zaqhubeka nokuthela amanzi abandayo ngezingxoxo ezivuselelwe zokuthula. Ukushintsha kwenqubomgomo ngo-Ephreli kubonakala sengathi kuhilele ukuzibophezela kukaZelenskyy ukuthi i-Ukraine, njenge-UK ne-US, "yayikuyo isikhathi eside" futhi izolwa, mhlawumbe iminyaka eminingi, ngokushintshanisa isithembiso samashumi ezigidigidi. yokuthunyelwa kwezikhali ezibiza amadola, ukuqeqeshwa kwezempi, ubuhlakani besathelayithi kanye nemisebenzi eyimfihlo yaseNtshonalanga.
Njengoba imiphumela yalesi sivumelwano esiyinhlekelele iba sobala, ukungezwani kwaqala ukuvela, ngisho nangaphakathi kwebhizinisi lase-US kanye nesikhungo sabezindaba. NgoMeyi 19, ngalo kanye usuku iCongress eyabela ngalo i-Ukraine amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingama-40, okuhlanganisa namaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-19 ukuze kuthunyelwe izikhali ezintsha, ngaphandle kwevoti elilodwa leDemocratic Alliance eliphikisayo, The New York Times ibhodi lokuhlela lilotshwe a ukuhola kokuhlela enesihloko esithi, “Impi yase-Ukraine iya isiba nzima, futhi iMelika ayikalungi.”
The Times ibuze imibuzo engathi sína engaphenduleki mayelana nezinjongo zase-US e-Ukraine, futhi yazama ukubuyisela emuva okulindelwe okungenangqondo okwakhiwe yizinyanga ezintathu zenkulumo-ze yaseNtshonalanga yohlangothi olulodwa, hhayi okungenani emakhasini ayo. Ibhodi livumile, “Ukunqoba kwezempi okuwujuqu kwe-Ukraine kwehlula iRussia, lapho i-Ukraine iphinde yathola yonke indawo ethathwe iRussia kusukela ngo-2014, akuwona umgomo ongokoqobo.… Ukulindela okungenangqondo kungase kudonsele [i-United States ne-NATO] kujule kakhulu emalini ebiza kakhulu. , impi engapheli.”
Muva nje, u-warhawk Henry Kissinger, wabo bonke abantu, ubuze esidlangalaleni yonke inqubomgomo yase-US yokuvuselela iMpi Yomshoshaphansi neRussia neChina kanye nokungabikho kwenhloso ecacile noma ukuphela kokuphela kweMpi Yezwe Yesithathu. "Sisemaphethelweni empi neRussia neChina ezindabeni esizisungule ngokwengxenye, ngaphandle komqondo wokuthi lokhu kuzophela kanjani noma lokho okufanele kuholele kukho," Kusho uKissinger The Wall Street Journal.
Abaholi base-US baye bafaka ingozi iRussia ebeka kuyo omakhelwane bayo naseNtshonalanga, ngokuyiphatha ngamabomu njengesitha lapho ukukhulumisana noma ukubambisana kungaba yize, kunokuba umakhelwane aphakamise ukukhathazeka okuqondakalayo kokuzivikela mayelana nokwandiswa kwe-NATO kanye nokuzungezwa kwayo kancane kancane yi-US kanye. amabutho ezempi ahlangene.
Kunokuba bahlose ukuvimbela iRussia ezenzweni eziyingozi noma eziphazamisayo, abaphathi abalandelanayo bazo zombili izinhlangothi bafuna zonke izindlela ezitholakalayo "ukwandisa ngokweqile nokungalingani" I-Russia, sonke lesi sikhathi idukisa umphakathi waseMelika ekusekeleni ingxabano ehlala ikhula futhi eyingozi ngokungacabangeki phakathi kwamazwe ethu womabili, lapho ehlangene aphethe ngaphezu kwe-90% yezikhali zenuzi zomhlaba.
Ngemuva kwezinyanga eziyisithupha zempi yommeleli wase-US kanye ne-NATO neRussia e-Ukraine, sisempambana-mgwaqo. Ukwanda okwengeziwe kufanele kube okungacabangeki, kodwa kufanele kube njalo nangempi ende yezikhali ezibulalayo ezingapheli kanye nezimpi ezinonya zasemadolobheni nemisele ecekela phansi i-Ukraine kancane kancane, ibulale amakhulu abantu base-Ukraine usuku ngalunye oludlulayo.
Okuwukuphela kwendlela enengqondo yalokhu kubulalana okungapheli ukubuyela ezingxoxweni zokuthula ukuze kuqedwe ukulwa, kutholwe izisombululo ezinengqondo zezombangazwe ezinhlangothini zezombangazwe zase-Ukraine, futhi kufuneke uhlaka olunokuthula lomncintiswano oyisisekelo wezwe phakathi kwe-United States, iRussia neChina.
Imikhankaso yokukhipha amadimoni, ukusabisa kanye nokucindezela izitha zethu ingaqinisa ubutha futhi ibeke inkundla yempi. Abantu abanenhliziyo enhle bangavala ngisho nokuhlukana okugxilile futhi banqobe izingozi ezikhona, inqobo nje uma bezimisele ukukhuluma - nokulalela - izitha zabo.
