Biden’s failed strategy from Gaza to Ukraine in 1402
In 1402, although the United States sought to withdraw from Iraq and reduce tensions with China, the aid to the genocide in Gaza and successive failures on the Ukrainian front made Biden's foreign policy appear ineffective and failed. |
Mehr News, International Group: America is preparing for the presidential elections. The popularity of the ruling Democrats has been severely questioned due to the wrong strategy of Joe Biden.
The American government in 1402, in addition to setting fire to West Asia, paved the way for successive defeats in Ukraine by fueling the war against Gaza. Attempting to withdraw from Iraq after six months of talks, as well as advancing the approach of reducing tensions with China, were among the other important events of American foreign policy this year.
America’s arson in West Asia with the Gaza war
In 1402, a blank check signed by US President Joe Biden to Benjamin Netanyahu » The Prime Minister of the Zionist regime fired at the Middle East for the genocide in the Gaza Strip and the continuous veto of the cease-fire resolutions by the US representative in the United Nations.
After Hamas attacked the Zionist regime on October 7th (15 Mehr) in response to the 75-year occupation of this regime, the government Biden fully supported Israel and still claimed that this regime has the right to defend itself; A position that was repeated by its allies, including France and England.
In spite of this, with widespread nationwide protests in more than a hundred countries of the world against the war and requests for America to stop supporting the Zionists, not only was it not effective Rather, Congress and the White House continued to finance the Zionist army.
America was not satisfied only with verbal support and financial-military aid, and from the very first days of the war against Gaza, its soldiers with cruiser was sent to this area; An action that caused the most attacks on American ships in the Red Sea by the Yemeni National Army in the past few months, while the US-UK coalition also repeatedly targeted Yemen’s Al-Hodeidah.
The American military presence in the region and the full support of the Biden government to the Zionist regime caused American positions and bases to be targeted many times by the Iraqi and Syrian resistance. Issues that made the tangled tangle of the Gaza crisis more complicated.
In the end, Biden’s support for the regime quickly led to a split in the party, and polls, especially among young people and Muslims, indicated a sharp decline in his popularity, and this country It has been isolated and hated more than ever in the world.
Responsible Statecraft magazine, published by the American Quincy Institute, described Biden’s foreign policy as a “failure” last year. According to this magazine, the Biden government not only burned the credibility of Washington with regard to human rights and international laws, but also linked America with war crimes committed against Palestinian civilians.
This American magazine emphasized that Biden defined his foreign policy with an over-reliance on military means and little effort in diplomatic engagement, and this issue may be one It is one of the reasons why people do not support the Biden administration in foreign policy.
America’s decision to withdraw from Iraq after 6 months of negotiations
About 2 years after America’s irresponsible withdrawal from Afghanistan, in 1402, the decision to withdraw from Iraq is more serious than before; Their decision was due to the independence and xenophobia of the Iraqi people, as well as the atmosphere of fear and insecurity that cast a shadow over the American military and bases during the past months due to the Gaza war.
The war of the Zionist regime against Gaza under the support of the United States, which has been more than four months since its beginning, has caused the Iraqi resistance to increase by more than 100 points in the past 6 months. to carry out operations against American positions more than 150 times.
In this situation, the public relations of the Iraqi Prime Minister’s Office announced on Saturday (7th of February) the beginning of bilateral talks between Baghdad and Washington to end the coalition mission in Iraq. .
On Wednesday (Bahman 4), the Iraqi Foreign Ministry issued a statement of agreement with the US government following six-month talks with this country for the gradual reduction of the coalition forces known as Anti-ISIS announced and said that according to this agreement, the mission of “fighting ISIS” that this coalition has defined for itself will end.
The Iraqi Prime Minister’s office then published pictures of the first meeting between the two sides and announced that Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammad Shia al-Sudani supervised the meeting.
Despite several rounds of strategic negotiations between Baghdad and Washington to end the military presence, America is still present in Iraq in violation of this resolution. The occupier has borne a high cost until today.
According to the Pentagon report recently, the American war in Iraq has resulted in the death of 4,431 American soldiers and civilians and the wounding of 32,000 other forces.
In a report, the “National” newspaper also discussed the cost of this occupation for Iraq and wrote that the statistics of civilian casualties in the war were not accurately recorded, but even quoted these statistics. Inaccurately, the occupation of Iraq has resulted in the death of more than 209,000 Iraqi civilians. Hundreds of thousands of people also face the consequences of the war, such as dehydration and various diseases, and 9.2 million Iraqis have been forced to migrate.
Decreasing trend of support for Ukraine
The American strategy in the war between Ukraine and Russia, which has always been to support Kiev, had a tangible change in 1402, especially in the last months of the year; This change was the beginning of another front in Gaza and West Asia, and the flood of weapons and financial aid shifted from Ukraine to the occupied territories.
Therefore, the year 1402 was not a good year for Ukraine, and day by day it was weakened in front of Russia and forced to retreat. The failure of Ukraine’s counterattack against Russia in the spring and summer led to the distrust of the people of this country towards its sovereignty in the process of war with Russia. This mistrust was not limited to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, but also included his Western supporters.
In May 1402, Russian forces announced that they had taken full control of “Bakhmut” and ended the intense conflict of several months in this city located in eastern Ukraine; An industrial and strategic city that until then was the center of the longest and bloodiest battles of the Ukrainian war.
Also, the capture of the strategic city of “Audioka” in eastern Ukraine during the last days of February, after the capture of the city of Bakhmut, clearly indicated the heavy weight of Russia in the Ukraine crisis; A path that is expected to continue in 1403.
The capture of Avdiyoka, which fell into the hands of the Russians in recent days after four months of bloody fighting, is the biggest change in the front line, which is more than a thousand kilometers long. . This military achievement clearly shows how the tide of war has turned in Moscow’s favor after the failure of the Ukrainian counteroffensive last year.
From the eyes of the observers, the capture of Avdiyoka is considered a strategic blow to the Ukrainian army. Under Avdiyka was a Ukrainian defensive bastion in the Donetsk region that protected several key army positions and the city It put Donetsk, which was close to Russian control, under constant threat.
In addition to the defeat of Ukraine in the field in 1402, Kiev also faced a seal from its western allies and sat behind the doors of NATO all this year, waiting for membership, but It didn’t work.
Strategy to reduce tension with China
Because America was involved in 2 crises in 1402, one in Ukraine and the other in Gaza, America made a lot of effort to reduce tension with China; Relations that were tense before and even in the issue of Taiwan, Beijing and Washington had gone to the point of military confrontation.
Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping finally held a face-to-face meeting in San Francisco in an unexpected move to normalize relations and agreed that both sides They described it as a success.
During this meeting, they decided to tackle the trade in fentanyl (a morphine-like narcotic pain reliever) and to suspend military talks and official discussions on artificial intelligence technology. start Also, these achievements were discussed with China’s efforts, including to strengthen the “BRICS” group and the incident of Chinese balloons entering the American airspace.
Wang Yi and Biden’s positive assessment of bilateral relations is at a time when the main sources of tension between them, including the Taiwan issue and territorial claims in the South China Sea, are still causing tension. Besides, Beijing and Washington have clear differences with each other on important issues from technology and trade to human rights.
