IBeijing neManila ziyaqhubeka zilwa imfazwe yamazwi, nangona zithembise ukunciphisa uxinzelelo kuThomas wesibini ongashukumiyo.
NgoLwesihlanu, nge-10 kaNovemba 2023, inqanawa yonogada baselunxwemeni baseTshayina yajika ecaleni kweBrp Cabra Filipine Coast Guard, isondela kwishafti yesibini kaThomas (igama lendawo elithi "Reef Ayungan") ngexesha lokuhlaziywa kweendawo zokugcina amanzi.
Igosa lokhuseleko lonxweme laseTshayina lithe izolo “livumele iiPhilippines ukuba zikhuphe indoda eyagulayo kwinqanawa yemfazwe eyayigqwala kwindawo enzulu ephikiswana ngayo kuLwandle lwaseMzantsi China.”
Le ngxelo yenziwe emva kweeyure ezimbalwa emva kokuba i-Coast Guard yasePhilippines ibike “imiqobo ephindaphindwayo kunye nokulibaziseka” ngamajoni aseTshayina ngexesha lomsebenzi wokukhupha abantu ngezonyango kwi-shallow yesibini yaseThomas ngeCawa.
Ummeli we-PCG uJay Tarrielle uxele kwinethiwekhi yoluntu ukuba iinqanawa ezimbini ze-PCG zadibana nesikhephe esiqinileyo esinokufuthwa (RHIB), sehliswa kunye ne-BRP Sierra Madre, isikhephe semfazwe esinomhlwa esahlulwahlulwa ngo-1999 saza sawela emhlabeni ngabom.
“Nangona kwakukho uloyiko oluvela kwii-CCG ezincinci ezahlukeneyo, i-PCG RHIB yakwazi ukubuyela kwinqanawa ephambili ye-PCG ngaphandle kokusilela okungakumbi. Emva koko kwabonelelwa ngonyango olungxamisekileyo kubasebenzi abagulayo,” utshilo uTalier.
Izolo ngokuhlwa kakhulu, i-CCG ithe ilawula olu tyando ukuya ekufudusweni kwezonyango, kodwa yamvumela ukuba aqhube “ngezizathu zobuntu,” litshilo iphephandaba laseTshayina i-Global Times. Ingxelo ithi oku kwenziwe ngesicelo sePhilippines.
Ummeli we-PCG uJay Tarriel uphendule u-X, esithi ingxelo yaseTshayina “iyahlekisa”. Le ngxelo “iphinda iqinisekise ukubekwa kweenkundla ngokungekho mthethweni kwindawo yethu yezoqoqosho ebalaseleyo kwaye igxininisa umbono karhulumente wabo wokuba imvume iyimfuneko ukukhusela ubomi bomntu kunye nentlalo-ntle yakhe”.
Ukutshintshiselana ngeengxelo yayikukungqubana kokugqibela phakathi kweManila neBeijing malunga nemeko yesibini ye-shallow yaseThomas. I-shallow yesibini yaseThomas yinduli ngexesha lolwandle kwindawo ekhethekileyo yezoqoqosho yasePhilippines, apho iTshayina ithi ngaphakathi kwesakhelo sayo esincinci "soMgca weedashi ezilithoba." ITshayina ibonakala iwathatha la manzi angaphantsi njengeyona nto isengozini kakhulu kwizinto ezilithoba kwiziqithi zaseSvtli ezihlala iiPhilippines. Kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo, iinqanawa zeCCG zenze imizamo ephindaphindayo neqinileyo yokuthintela iiPhilippines ukuba zizalise iindawo zokugcina ibutho elincinci leenqanawa zaselwandle ezazisasazwe eSierra Madra, ngelixa zityhola i-manila ngokwaphula izivumelwano zangaphambili, ngaphandle kokubonelela ngenqanawa enomhlwa ngezinto zokwakha iinqanawa zemfazwe. . (IPhilippines iyawakhanyela onke la mazwi.)
Oku kukhokelele kuthotho lweziganeko eziyingozi, apho iinqanawa zeCCG zadubula zaza zadubula zisuka kwimveliso yamanzi iinqanawa zasePhilippines ezazigada iinqanawa kunye nezinto eziyimfuneko. Esona sibi kakhulu senzeke ngoJuni 17. Xa iyonke, amajoni asibhozo asePhilippines enzakele, omnye wawo wenzakele kakhulu. I-PCG ikwathi iChina yathintela inzame yokufuduka kwabantu ngezonyango ngoMeyi 19.
Ngolunye usuku, ummeli osemthethweni weSebe lezeMicimbi yezeNgaphandle laseTshayina, uMao Ning, uthe ukuba iiPhilippines “ziyazisa iTshayina” kwangaphambili, “ziya kuvumela” ukuthuthwa kweempahla okanye ukufuduswa kwabasebenzi kwiintaba zaseSierra-Madra.
Oku kudala ingxaki kwiPhilippines, utshilo uThe Inquirer Ray Powell, umlawuli wenkqubo ye-SEALIight kwiZiko leMivumbo kwiSizwe soKhuseleko kwiYunivesithi yaseStanford.
“Ukuqonda iManila ukuba iimfuno zaseBeijing zesaziso sokuqala, nokuba zinxulumene nemisebenzi ephambili yokunceda abantu, ziyaphikisana neengxelo zaseManila malunga nenkululeko yokuthunyelwa kweenqanawa kunye nelungelo lokuzalisa kwakhona iindawo ezigciniweyo ze-avantost zabo kwindawo yayo yoqoqosho ebalaseleyo,” utshilo uPowell.
Kwakhona kule veki, iBeijing neBeijing zidlale emva kokuba uMphathiswa Wezendalo waseTshayina ebike ngoMvulo kwingxelo yokuba “ukuphosa ngokungekho mthethweni elunxwemeni” eSierra-Madra “kubangele umonakalo omkhulu kulwahlulo, uzinzo kunye nozinzo lwendalo ye-coral reef kaThomas An”. Kwabakho ukutshintshiselana ngomsindo ngezimvo. Iqela Elisebenzayo lasePhilippines kuLwandle lwaseMzantsi China liphendule impendulo, lityhola iTshayina “ngokubangela umonakalo ongenakulinganiswa kwimeko-bume yolwandle kunye nokudala isoyikiso kwindawo yokuhlala yendalo kunye neendlela zokubakho kwamawaka abalobi basePhilippines.”
Imfazwe yamazwi eqhubekayo ibonisa ukuba, nangona omabini amacala enoxanduva, ukunciphisa uxinzelelo kwi-shallow yesibini kaThomas emva kwesiganeko sangoJuni 17, imeko isaqhubeka inzima kwaye inokubangela ukuqhuma okukhulu.

Imfazwe yamazwi eqhubekayo ibonisa ukuba, nangona omabini amacala enoxanduva, ukunciphisa uxinzelelo kwi-shallow yesibini kaThomas emva kwesiganeko sangoJuni 17, imeko isaqhubeka inzima kwaye inokubangela ukuqhuma okukhulu.
