(Washington, DC) 31 Luulyo 2023 – The threat of nuclear annihilation is no more serious than the threat of climate change, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has claimed. Blinken’s critics argue that Washington is risking nuclear war by arming Ukraine.
In an appearance on 60 Minutes Australia on Sunday, Blinken was asked whether nuclear war or climate change represented “the greater threat to humanity.”
Khatarta ciribtirka Nukliyeerka kama cuslan khatarta isbeddelka cimilada, Xoghayaha Arrimaha Dibadda ee Mareykanka Antony Blinken ayaa sheegay. Dadka dhaleeceeya Blinken ayaa ku doodaya in Washington ay halis ugu jirto dagaal nukliyeer ah iyada oo hubaynaysa Ukraine.
Muuqaal 60 Minutes Australia Axadii, Blinken ayaa la waydiiyay bal in dagaalka nukliyeerka ama isbedelka cimiladu uu matalo “khatarta weyn ee bini’aadamka.”
“Hagaag, ma awoodid, waxaan u maleynayaa, inaad leedahay kala sareyn,” ayuu ku jawaabay. “Waxaa jira waxyaabo qaar oo hore iyo xarun u ah… oo ay ku jiraan iskahorimaadyada suurtagalka ah, laakiin shaki kuma jiro in cimiladu ay u taagan tahay caqabad jirta dhammaanteen.”
“Marka anaga, tani waa caqabada jiritaan ee waqtiyadeena,” ayuu sii raaciyay, isagoo raaciyay “in tani aysan macnaheedu ahayn in inta lagu guda jiro aysan jirin caqabado adag oo ku wajahan nidaamka caalamiga ah sida gardarada Russia ee ka dhanka ah Ukraine.”
“Well, you can’t, I think, have a hierarchy,” he replied. “There are some things that are front and center…including potential conflict, but there’s no doubt that climate represents an existential challenge to all of us.”
“So for us, this is the existential challenge of our times,” he continued, adding that this “doesn’t mean that in the meantime there are not severe challenges to the international order like Russia’s aggression against Ukraine.”
