论美尼(泊尔)《千禧年挑战合约》的签订

On the Signing of the Millennium Challenge Compact between the United States of America and Nepal

作为美国官方对外援助机构之一,千禧年挑战公司自成立以来,已对非洲和亚洲等大洲很多国家提供了援助,成为美国实施对外战略的重要工具。该公司以援助为诱饵,设定严格的限制条件,以此介入受援国的内部事务。美国与尼泊尔的《千禧年挑战合约》于2017年签订,2022年2月27日获得尼泊尔议会的批准。该合约的很多规定及合约的性质对尼泊尔的主权、法律和外交原则形成挑战,引发了尼泊尔人的普遍不满。《千禧年挑战合约》的主要目的是巩固和扩大美国的霸权与影响力、掌控尼泊尔以及对抗中国的“一带一路”倡议。鉴于尼泊尔独特的政治生态和外交传统、尼印特殊关系以及具体项目实施过程中将面临的难题等因素,美国要贯彻其意图将面临诸多困难与挑战。

As one of American official foreign aid institutions,Millennium Challenge Corporation(shortened as MCC)has offered aids to many countries in Africa and Asia since it was established,having already become one of the U.S.’important instruments to impose its foreign strategy.The MCC uses aid as an inducement to intervene in the internal affairs of the recipient countries by setting strict restrictions.The Millennium Challenge Compact between the United States of America and Nepal was signed in 2017and then ratified by the parliament of Nepal on February 27,2022.Many of the provisions of the contract and its nature challenge Nepal’s principles of sovereignty,law and diplomacy and have sparked widespread discontent among Nepalis.The main purpose of the Millennium Challenge Compact is to consolidate and expand US hegemony and influence,to control Nepal and to counter China’s“Belt and Road”Initiative.Given Nepal’s unique political ecology and diplomatic tradition,the special relationship between Nepal and India,and the difficulties that will be faced in implementing specific projects,the US will face many difficulties and challenges in implementing its intentions.
