Umongameli uDonald Trump woyikisa kwaye uceba ukucima i-TikTok ekwabelwana ngayo ngevidiyo evela e-US ngenxa yomngcipheko wokhuseleko.UNikolas Kokovlis / NurPhoto ngokusebenzisa imifanekiso kaGetty Ukunyuka kweemeteoriki zeTikTok, usetyenziso lwevidiyo emfutshane kaGen Z, akukho nto imfutshane ngommangaliso. Akuzange kwimbali yedijithali sikhe sibone imveliso yabathengi eyenziwe yinkampani yamanye amazwe ithandwa kangaka ngabantu baseMelika ngokukhawuleza. Kodwa ixesha lokuphakama kwayo lisenokuba kukuwa kwayo, njengoko iza phakathi kwezopolitiko ezonyukayo phakathi kwe-US ne China. Impumelelo yobusuku bukaTikTok ngoku iyeyona nto imbi kakhulu kwinkampani yabazali baseTshayina, iBeteDance.
NgoLwesihlanu ophelileyo, uTrump uthe ukulungele ukutyikitya umyalelo wokulawula i-TikTok e-U.S. Kamva wavuma ukubeka isibambiso emva kokuba uMicrosoft evakalise umdla wokufumana iTikTok kwaye ayenze inkampani eyiyo yaseMelika. Kodwa ukusukela ngoLwesine ebusuku, iMicrosoft ifuna ukugqiba isivumelwano ngeentsuku ezingama-45 kwaye isike urhulumente isabelo esikhulu sentengiso, njengoTrump iyalelwe ekuqaleni kwale veki.
Akucaci ukuba urhulumente uza kuyifumana njani le ntlawulo icetywayo, okanye phantsi kwayiphi imeko. Okwangoku, kuyavakala kungenangqondo ngokwaneleyo ukuba kwintengiso yasimahla eMelika umongameli ohleli-ngakumbi lowo ulawulo lwakhe luyekelela kwiirhafu zorhwebo kunye neminye imiba- uvunyelwe ukubhloka imveliso yabathengi, ubeke umhla wokugqibela kwintetho yokudityaniswa kwamashishini kwaye afune umrhumo wentengiselwano.
Ngelixa ukwenza zonke ezi zinto zintathu ngaxeshanye kunokutsala imiceli mngeni kwezomthetho, umongameli ngu kuvunyelwe ukwenza ubuncinci kwezinye zazo. UMongameli unegunya lokukhupha umyalelo olawulayo wokujongana nayo nayiphi na into uMongameli okanye abacebisi bakhe abakholelwa ekubeni sisisongelo kukhuseleko lwesizwe, ucacisile uChris Garcia , owayesakuba ngusekela mlawuli kwiSebe lezoRhwebo ukusuka ngo-2017 ukuya ku-2018 phantsi kukaTrump.
UMongameli wase-US unegunya lokunyanzela intengiso yequmrhu okanye ukuyalela inkampani ukuba iyeke ukusebenza ngeKomiti yoTyalo-mali lwaNgaphandle e-United States (i-CFIUS), iqela likarhulumente le-arhente eliphakathi kweSebe likaNondyebo.
Ecaphula ngaphambili, uGarcia wongeze, Khumbula, ulawulo luthintele ukuthengiswa kweQualcomm kwi-Broadcom esekwe eSingapore kwi2018 kwaye yabeka uluhlu lweHuawei kunye nezinye iifemu zetekhnoloji yaseTshayina ekuthengeni izinto zobuchwephesha zase-US ngenxa yenkxalabo yezokhuseleko kuzwelonke, kunye namalungelo oluntu.
NgoLwesine, uTrump uchaze iimfuno zakhe kwisibini semiyalelo yolawulo-enye ijolise kumzali we-TikTok ngu-ByteDance kunye nomnye kumnini we-WeChat u-Tencent-esithi ulawulo luza kuvala i-TikTok kunye ne-WeChat ngoSeptemba 20 ngaphandle kokuba iinkampani zabazali baseTshayina zihlube ubunini beziapps ngoko.
Bona kwakho: Ngeemfazwe e-China, TikTok nakwi-Twitter, uTrump uzama ukujonga i-Intanethi
Imiyalelo icaphula i-International Emergency Powers Act (IEEPA), egunyazisa umongameli ukuba alawule urhwebo lwamanye amazwe emva kokubhengeza imeko engxamisekileyo yesizwe malunga nomngcipheko wezokhuseleko kuzwelonke. I-US okwangoku iphantsi kwemeko ezingxamisekileyo ezininzi, kubandakanya enye ibhengezwe ngoMeyi 2019 ethintela iifemu zase-US ekubeni zenze ishishini nayo nayiphi na inkampani yangaphandle ethathwa liSebe lezoRhwebo njengesoyikiso kukhuseleko lwesizwe.
Kodwa abanye abagxeki bafumana ulawulo luthatha injongo kwiTikTok kunzima ukujongana nayo.
Ndicinga ukuba iqhume ngokupheleleyo, uBill Mundell, umvelisi we-U.S. Iingelosi ezingcono , uxelele uMqwalaseli. Uninzi lwabasebenzisi beTikTok alunakubudala bokuvota. Andikholelwa ukuba ukusasaza iingqondo ezilishumi elinambini kuphakathi kwezona zinto ziphambili kwiQela lamaKomanisi lase China.
Silandela uhlobo olunye lokuziphatha kwe-mercantilist esityhola amaTshayina phantsi kwesoyikiso kukhuseleko lwesizwe, wongeze watsho.
UMundell, owayekade efundisa uqoqosho e-UCLA kwaye enamava amashumi eminyaka esenza ishishini ne China, uthe ishishini eliphumeleleyo langaphandle njengeTikTok ngelingene ukunceda i-US isombulule ezinye zeengxaki zethu ukuba urhulumente ebenendlela encinci. Kweli lizwe, sinexhala malunga nokuxinana kwamandla phakathi kweenkampani zobuchwephesha kuzo zonke iintlobo zezizathu ezisemthethweni, utshilo.
I-TikTok yayilinyathelo elikhulu kwicala lokusombulula le ngxaki, kuba yayihlaziya amandla obukhosi eenkampani zethu zobuchwephesha. UMundell uthe akanabanini bazo naziphi na iinkampani zaseTshayina okanye amashishini aseMelika axhaswe yimali yamaTshayina.
Ukuthetha ngethemba lezinye iinkampani zaseTshayina ezenza ishishini eMelika, uMundell okanye uGarcia abanathemba.
SinoNombolo 1 kunye no-2 wezoqoqosho olukhulu olwela ubungangamsha behlabathi. Oku akuyi kuphela, utshilo uGarcia. Uza kubona uninzi lokuziphindezela ngasemva nangaphambili.
Ngelishwa, iimvakalelo ezichasene ne-China ziye zanda ngokubangumbindi, utshilo uMundell. Ndicinga ukuba kuzakubanzima ukurhoxa kumalinge aqaliswe nkqu nomongameli omtsha.
