STATEMENTS AND RELEASES

President Biden underscored the commitment of the United States and its allies and partners to the principle of “nothing about you without you.” He reaffirmed the United States’ commitment to Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.


 Nothing About Us Without Us

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


"Nothing About Us Without Us!" (Latin: "Nihil de nobis, sine nobis") is a slogan used to communicate the idea that no policy should be decided by any representative without the full and direct participation of members of the group(s) affected by that policy. 

・・・・・ アメリカが同盟国を尊重して政策を決めたことっあるわけ???


Mr. Biden hasn’t committed to a military deployment in support of Ukraine, instead emphasizing an economic response, such as sanctions, to a Russian offensive. This is a signal that Mr. Biden is reluctant to intervene militarily.

「コミットメント」 というから何かと思ったら軍事的コミットメントじゃないわけだね。


 For Russia, taking Ukraine would secure its hold on the Black Sea and open other pressure points against vulnerable NATO members Romania and Bulgaria. For the Chinese Communist Party, seizing Taiwan would allow the country to break out of the First Island Chain and conduct offensive operations against Japan, the Philippines and even U.S. territories in the Central Pacific.

ウクライナはロシアにとって、台湾は中国にとって地政学的に重要なわけだね。 

Ukraine’s willingness and ability to fight hard, no less than NATO’s potential intervention, helps deter Russian action.

ただ、ウクライナの方はNATOもひかえているし、ロシアが攻撃するかどうかは疑問

The question for the People’s Liberation Army is less whether it can take Taiwan, but whether it can succeed before a potential American and allied coalition can respond.


The Russian Pacific Fleet has enough submarines to bog down Japanese and U.S. units needed to defend Taiwan in shielding the Japanese home islands. That would make China’s mission much more likely to succeed.

むしろ、ロシアは中国の台湾侵略に手を貸す、と。

ーーーーまあ、どっちにせよ、アメリカの戦略の負けだね。ロシアを味方にして中国と対峙すべきだった。
