Njengoba uKhongolose usadonsa kanzima ukuphasisa a Impumuzo ye-COVID Bill, umhlaba wonke unovalo ukugcina ukwahlulela mayelana nomongameli omusha waseMelika kanye nenqubomgomo yakhe yezangaphandle, ngemuva kokuba abaphathi be-US belethe ukushaqeka okungalindelekile nokulimazayo emhlabeni kanye nohlelo lwamazwe ngamazwe.
Ithemba elihlakaniphile lamazwe ngamazwe ngoMongameli uBiden lisekelwe kakhulu ekuzibophezeleni kwakhe ekuphumeleleni kuka-Obama kokusayina, i-JCPOA noma isivumelwano senuzi ne-Iran. UBiden kanye namaDemocrats bajabulele uTrump ngokuhoxa kulo futhi wathembisa ukuthi uzophinda ajoyine isivumelwano uma ekhethwa. Kepha manje uBiden ubukeka evala isikhundla sakhe ngendlela ebeka engcupheni yokuguqula lokho okufanele kube ukunqoba okulula kwabaphathi abasha kube ukwehluleka okugwemekayo nokudabukisayo kwezokuxhumana.
Yize kwakuyi-United States ngaphansi kukaTrump eyahoxa esivumelwaneni senuzi, uBiden uthatha isikhundla sokuthi i-US ngeke isijoyine isivumelwano noma isiyeke. unswinyo oluhlangothi olulodwa kuze kube yilapho i-Iran iqala ukubuyela ekuhambisaneni. Ngemuva kokuhoxa esivumelwaneni, i-United States ayisekho esimweni sokwenza lezi zidingo, futhi uNgqongqoshe Wezangaphandle uZarif uveze ngokucacile nangokucacile. wazenqaba, igcizelela ukuzibophezela okuqinile kwe-Iran kokuthi izobuyela ekuthobeleni ngokugcwele ngokushesha nje lapho i-United States yenza kanjalo.
UBiden bekumele amemezele ukungena kabusha kwe-US njengomunye wemiyalo yakhe yokuqala. Kwakungadingi ukuxoxisana kabusha noma inkulumo-mpikiswano. Emkhankasweni womkhankaso, uBernie Sanders, imbangi enkulu yeBiden yokuqokwa kweDemocratic Alliance, umane ethembisiwe, "Ngizophinda ngifake isivumelwano ngosuku lokuqala lobumongameli bami."
Ngemuva kwalokho ozokhethwa uSenator Kirsten IGillibrand "Kudingeka siphinde sihlanganyele nabalingani bethu ekubuyeleni esivumelwaneni, inqobo nje uma i-Iran ivuma ukuhambisana nesivumelwano futhi ithatha izinyathelo zokuhlehlisa ukwephulwa kwayo ..." UGillibrand uthe i-Iran kumele "ivume" ukuthatha lezo zinyathelo, hhayi. ukuthi kufanele kubathathe kuqala, balindele ngokusobala futhi basenqabe ngokungaguquki isikhundla sikaBiden sokuzihlula ukuthi i-Iran kumele ibuyele ngokugcwele ekuhambisaneni ne-JCPOA ngaphambi kokuthi i-United States iphinde ijoyine.
Uma uBiden ephinda ejoyina i-JCPOA, zonke izinhlinzeko zesivumelwano zizosebenza futhi zisebenze njengoba zenza ngaphambi kokuthi uTrump ahoxe. I-Iran izoba ngaphansi kokuhlolwa nemibiko efanayo ye-IAEA njengangaphambili. Ukuthi i-Iran iyathobela yini noma cha kuzonqunywa yi-IAEA, hhayi i-United States ngokuhlanganyela. Sisebenza kanjalo isivumelwano, njengoba bonke abasayinile bavumelana: I-China, iFrance, iJalimane, i-Iran, iRussia, i-United Kingdom, i-European Union - ne-United States.
Manje-ke kungani uBiden engakufaki ngokulangazela lokhu kuwina okulula kokuqala ngokuzibophezela kwakhe ekukhulumeni? Ngo-December 2020 Incwadi ukusekela i-JCPOA, esayinwe ngabakwa-House Democrats abayi-150, bekufanele kuqinisekise uBiden ukuthi unokwesekwa okukhulu ukumelana noklebe kuzo zombili izinhlangothi.
Kepha esikhundleni salokho uBiden ubukeka elalele abaphikisana ne-JCPOA bemtshela ukuthi ukuhoxa kukaTrump esivumelwaneni kumnikezile. "zuza" ukuxoxisana ngezimvume ezintsha ezivela e-Iran ngaphambi kokujoyina kabusha. Esikhundleni sokunikeza i-Biden amandla phezu kwe-Iran, engenaso isizathu sokuvuma okunye, lokhu kunikeze abamelene ne-JCPOA amandla phezu kwe-Biden, imguqule ebholeni, esikhundleni se-quarterback, kule diplomatic Super Bowl.
Neocons American kanye oklebe, kuhlanganise abangaphakathi abaphathi bakhe, babonakala beguqula imisipha yabo ukuze babulale ukuzibophezela kukaBiden ekukhulumeni ngesikhathi ezalwa, futhi imibono yakhe yenqubomgomo yezangaphandle ye-hawkish imenza athonyeke ngokuyingozi izingxabano zabo. Lokhu futhi kuwuvivinyo lobudlelwano bakhe obuphansi ne-Israel phambilini, uhulumeni wayo ophikisana kakhulu ne-JCPOA futhi izikhulu zayo zike zahluleka. esongelwa ukwethula ukuhlasela kwezempi e-Iran uma i-US iphinda ijoyina, usongo olungekho emthethweni uBiden okusamele alulahle esidlangalaleni.
Emhlabeni onengqondo ngokwengeziwe, isimemo sokuncishiswa kwezikhali zenuzi eMpumalanga Ephakathi sizogxila ku-Israyeli, hhayi e-Iran. Njengoba u-Archbishop Desmond Tutu abhala ku-Guardian ngoDisemba 31, 2020, indawo yakwa-Israyeli inqwaba - noma mhlawumbe amakhulu - yezikhali zenuzi yi imfihlo egcinwe kabi emhlabeni. I-athikhili kaTutu yayiyincwadi evulelekile eya ku-Biden, emcela ukuthi avume esidlangalaleni lokho umhlaba wonke osukwazi kakade futhi aphendule njengoba kudingekile ngaphansi komthetho wase-US ekwandeni kwangempela kwezikhali zenuzi eMpumalanga Ephakathi.
Esikhundleni sokubhekana nengozi yezikhali zenuzi zangempela zakwa-Israyeli, abaphathi be-US abalandelanayo bakhethe ukukhala ngokuthi “Impisi!” phezu kwezikhali zenuzi ezingekho e-Iraq nase-Iran ukuze bathethelele ukuvimbezela ohulumeni babo, babeke unswinyo olubulalayo kubantu babo, bahlasele i-Iraq futhi besabise i-Iran. Umhlaba ongabazayo ubhekile ukubona ukuthi uMengameli uBiden unabo yini ubuqotho kanye nentando yezepolitiki ukwephula leli phethini eliwumshoshaphansi.
I-CIA's Weapons Intelligence, Nonproliferation and Arms Control Center (WINPAC), eyenza abantu baseMelika besabe ngezikhali zenuzi zase-Iran ezicatshangelwayo futhi inikeze i-IAEA izinsolo ezingapheli ngazo, yiyona nhlangano eyaveza amanga aqhubela iMelika ukuthi ilwe ne-Iraq 2003. Kulowo mcimbi, umqondisi we-WINPAC, u-Alan Foley, etshela abasebenzi bakhe, "Uma umongameli efuna ukuya empini, umsebenzi wethu ukuthola ubuhlakani obuzomvumela ukuthi enze lokho" - njengoba avuma ngasese ku-CIA uzakwabo owayesethathe umhlalaphansi uMelvin Goodman ukuthi amabutho ase-US afuna ama-WMD e-Iraq ayezothola, " hhayi okuningi, uma kukhona. "
Okwenza ukuthi uBiden agxilise ukunxenxa uNetanyahu kanye neocons ukuthi bazibulale ngokusemthethweni ngalesi sikhathi ukuthi ngoNovemba iphalamende lase-Iranian. wadlulisela umthetho lokho kuphoqa uhulumeni wakhe ukuthi amise ukuhlolwa kwezikhali zenuzi futhi aqinise ukunothiswa kwe-uranium uma unswinyo lwase-US lungadalulwa ngoFebhuwari 21.
Ukwenza izinto zibe nzima nakakhulu, i-Iran izoba nokhetho lwayo lukamongameli ngoJuni 18, 2021, kanye nenkathi yokhetho–lapho lolu daba luzodingidwa kakhulu—luqala ngemva kukaNcibijane wase-Iranian ngoMashi 21. Owinile kulindeleke ukuthi abe inkakha yoklebe. Inqubomgomo ehlulekile kaTrump, iBiden manje eqhubeka ngokuzenzakalelayo, iyigxekile imizamo kaMongameli Rouhani kanye noNgqongqoshe Wezangaphandle uZarif, eqinisekisa kubantu abaningi base-Irani ukuthi ukuxoxisana neMelika kuwumsebenzi weziwula.
Uma uBiden engayijoyini kabusha i-JCPOA maduze, isikhathi sizoba sifushane kakhulu ukubuyisela ukuthobela okuphelele kwe-Iran ne-US—okuhlanganisa nokususa unswinyo olufanele—ngaphambi kokhetho lwase-Iran. Usuku ngalunye oludlulayo lunciphisa isikhathi esitholakalayo sokuba abantu base-Irani babone izinzuzo zokususwa kwezijeziso, okushiya mancane amathuba okuthi bavotele uhulumeni omusha oweseka izingxoxo ne-United States.
Isikhathi esizungeze i-JCPOA besaziwa futhi sibikezelwa, ngakho-ke le nkinga ebingagwemeka ibonakala iwumphumela wesinqumo samabomu sika-Biden sokuzama ukushweleza phakathi kwama-neocons nama-warmongers, asekhaya nakwamanye amazwe, ngokuhlukumeza i-Iran, ozakwethu esivumelwaneni samazwe ngamazwe athi ukwesekwa, ukwenza izivumelwano ezengeziwe ezingeyona ingxenye yesivumelwano.
Emkhankasweni wakhe wokhetho, uMongameli uBiden wathembisa "ukuphakamisa idiplomacy njengethuluzi eliyinhloko lokuzibandakanya kwethu emhlabeni jikelele." Uma uBiden ehluleka lolu vivinyo lokuqala lwezingxoxo zakhe ezithenjisiwe, abantu emhlabeni wonke bazophetha ngokuthi, naphezu kokumamatheka kophawu lwakhe lokuhweba kanye nobuntu bakhe obuthandekayo, uBiden akasemeli ukuzibophezela kwangempela ebudlelwaneni baseMelika “ezweni elisekelwe emithethweni” ngokubambisana kunoTrump noma U-Obama wenza.
Lokho kuzoqinisekisa ukukhula okuqhubekayo kwamazwe ngamazwe umbono ukuthi, ngemuva kwesimiso esihle samaphoyisa amaRiphabhulikhi namaDemocrats, isiqondiso sisonke senqubomgomo yezangaphandle yase-US sihlala sinolaka, siphoqa futhi silimaza. Abantu kanye nohulumeni emhlabeni jikelele bazoqhubeka nokwehlisa ubudlelwano ne-United States, njengoba benza ngaphansi kukaTrump, futhi nabasekeli bendabuko base-US bazohlela inkambo yokuzimela ngokuya ngokuya ngokuzimela. umhlaba we-multipolar lapho i-US ingaseyena umlingani onokwethenjelwa futhi ngokuqinisekile ingeyena umholi.
Kuningi okulenga esilinganisweni, kubantu base-Iran behlupheka futhi befa ngaphansi komthelela we Ukujeziswa kwe-US, kubantu baseMelika abalangazelela ubudlelwano obunokuthula nomakhelwane bethu emhlabeni wonke, kanye nabantu yonke indawo abalangazelela ukuhleleka kwamazwe ngamazwe okunobuntu nokulingana ukuze kubhekwane nezinkinga ezinkulu esibhekene nazo sonke kuleli khulu leminyaka. Ngabe iBiden's America ingaba yingxenye yesixazululo? Ngemva kwamasonto amathathu kuphela ehhovisi, ngokuqinisekile ngeke kuphuze kakhulu. Kodwa ibhola lisenkundleni yakhe, futhi umhlaba wonke ubhekile.
