Utshalomali oluncane lwesikhathi eside lwenziwe ezinkampanini ezilandela imboni yezikhali zenuzi, ngokusho kombiko we-Don't Bank on the Bomb, oshicilelwe namuhla ngabakwa-PAX kanye ne-ICAN. Umbiko uthole ukwehla kwezigidigidi ezingama- $ 45.9 ekutshalweni kwezimali kwesikhathi eside ngo-2022, okubandakanya imali mboleko kanye nokubhala ngaphansi.
Umbiko “Ukubuyisela Okuyingozi” inikeza umbono wokutshalwa kwezimali ezinkampanini ezingu-24 ezihileleke kakhulu ekukhiqizeni izikhali zenuzi ezinqolobaneni zezikhali zaseChina, eFrance, e-India, eRussian Federation, e-United Kingdom nase-United States ngo-2022. Sekukonke, umbiko uthola ukuthi izikhungo zezezimali ezingu-306 yenza imali engaphezu kwezigidigidi ezingama-746 zamarandi itholakale kulezi zinkampani, ngemalimboleko, ukubhala phansi, amasheya noma amabhondi. IVanguard ezinze e-US isalokhu ingumtshali-zimali oyedwa omkhulu kunayo yonke, njengoba itshalwe ezigidini ezingu-68,180 zamaRandi embonini yezikhali zenuzi.
Nakuba inani eliphelele lokutshalwa kwezimali kubakhiqizi bezikhali zenuzi abangama-24 laliphezulu kuneminyaka edlule, lokhu kuphinde kudalwe ukuhluka kwentengo yamasheya ngonyaka oneziyaluyalu emkhakheni wezokuvikela. Abanye abakhiqizi bezikhali zenuzi baphinde bakhiqize izikhali ezijwayelekile futhi babone amanani abo esitoko ekhuphuka, okungenzeka kube umphumela wezimemezelo zezifunda ze-NATO zokuthi bazokwandisa kakhulu ukusetshenziswa kwezokuvikela. Nokho umbiko awutholanga ukwenyuka kwesibalo sabatshalizimali kubakhiqizi bezikhali zenuzi.
Umbiko uphinde wathola ukwehla kwezigidigidi ezingama- $ 45.9 ngo-2022 ekutshalweni kwezimali kwesikhathi eside, okubandakanya imali mboleko kanye nokubhala ngaphansi. Lokhu kungase kubonise ukuthi inani elikhulayo labatshalizimali besikhathi eside aliboni ukukhiqizwa kwezikhali zenuzi njengemakethe yokukhula esimeme futhi libheke izinkampani ezithintekayo njengengozi egwemeka. Iphinde ibonise izinguquko kumongo wezomthetho: Ngokukhulayo, umthetho wokukhuthala okufanele e-Europe, kanye nokulindelwe kwemithetho enjalo, kuphakamisa imibuzo mayelana nokutshalwa kwezimali kubakhiqizi bezikhali.
Lo mkhuba wesikhathi eside ukhombisa ukuthi ukukhula kwenhlamba okuhambisana nezikhali zenuzi kunomphumela. Njengoba kusho uMqondisi Omkhulu we-ICAN uBeatrice Fihn “ISivumelwano Sokuvinjelwa Kwezikhali Zenuzi - i-TPNW - esaqala ukusebenza ngo-2021 senze lezi zikhali zokucekela phansi okukhulu zibe ngekho emthethweni ngaphansi komthetho wamazwe ngamazwe. Ukuzibandakanya ekukhiqizeni izikhali zenuzi kubi ebhizinisini, futhi umthelela wesikhathi eside kumalungelo abantu nendawo ezungezile yalezi zinkampani uwenza ube utshalomali oluyingozi kakhulu.”
Nokho onyakeni ophawulwe ukwanda kwezingxabano zomhlaba wonke kanye nokwesaba ukwanda kwezikhali zenuzi, abatshalizimali abaningi kufanele bathumele uphawu olucacile emhlabeni ukuthi izikhali zenuzi azamukelekile futhi ziqede ubudlelwano bazo nalezi zinkampani. U-Alejandra Muñoz, ovela kuphrojekthi ye-No Nukes e-PAX, nombhali ngokubambisana walo mbiko, uthe: “Amabhange, izikhwama zempesheni nezinye izikhungo zezezimali eziqhubeka nokutshala imali kubakhi bezikhali zenuzi zenza lezi zinkampani zikwazi ukuqhubeka nokubamba iqhaza ekuthuthukisweni nasekukhiqizeni izikhali zenuzi. izikhali zokucekela phansi. Umkhakha wezezimali ungabamba iqhaza futhi kufanele ubambe iqhaza emizamweni eqhubekayo yokunciphisa indima yezikhali zenuzi emphakathini.”
Isifinyezo Esiphezulu singatholakala lapha futhi umbiko ogcwele ungafundwa lapha.
