Ngasikhathi sinye, i-Airbus inakho ukusungula okuningi.Ngamanye amazwi, ngisho noma iRussia ivimbela ngenkuthalo, ngeke kuthinte ukukhiqizwa kwezindiza ze-Airbus isikhathi esithile.Ikakhulukazi uma kubhekwa ingemuva lokwehla kokukhiqizwa kwezindiza kanye nesidingo sezindiza ngenxa yobhubhane lwe-Covid-19.Futhi, yaqala ukwehla ngisho nangaphambi kobhubhane.
URoman Gusarov wathi: “Ngesikhathi esifushane, izinqolobane ze-titanium zanele ukuhlangabezana nezidingo zazo ngoba zinciphise izinhlelo zokukhiqiza.Kodwa yisiphi isinyathelo esilandelayo?I-Airbus ne-Boeing, abakhiqizi ababili abakhulu emhlabeni, banengxenye ye-titanium yabo ehlinzekwa yiRussia.Ayikho enye indlela yomthamo omkhulu kangaka.Kuthatha isikhathi esiningi ukuhlela kabusha i-supply chain.”
Kepha uma iRussia yenqaba ngokweqiniso ukuthumela i-titanium, izolimaza kakhulu iRussia.Yebo, le ndlela ingadala ubunzima bendawo embonini yezokundiza.Kodwa eminyakeni embalwa, umhlaba uzohlela amaketanga amasha wokuhlinzeka futhi utshale imali kwamanye amazwe, khona-ke iRussia izohoxisa kulokhu kubambisana kuze kube phakade futhi ingaphinde ibuye.Nakuba i-Boeing isanda kuveza ukuthi bathole abanye abahlinzeki be-titanium abamelwe yiJapane neKazakhstan.
Ukuthi nje lo mbiko ukhuluma nge-sponge titanium, sorry, i-bonanza okumele ihlukaniswe i-titanium bese isetshenziselwa ukwenza imikhiqizo ye-titanium.Lapho i-Boeing izokwenza konke lokhu kusengumbuzo, njengoba lonke uchungechunge lobuchwepheshe bomshini we-titanium lungezizwe zonke.Ngisho neRussia ayiwona umkhiqizi ogcwele we-titanium.Insimbi ingambiwa ndawana thize e-Afrika noma eLatin America.Lolu wuchungechunge lwezimboni oluqinile, ngakho ukuludala kusukela ekuqaleni kudinga imali eningi.
Umenzi wezindiza wase-Europe futhi uhlela ukukhuphula ukukhiqizwa kwendiza yayo i-A320, imbangi enkulu ye-737 futhi ethathe izimakethe eziningi ze-Boeing eminyakeni yamuva.Ekupheleni kukaMashi, kwabikwa ukuthi i-Airbus isiqalile ukufuna eminye imithombo yokuthola i-titanium yaseRussia uma kwenzeka iRussia iyeka ukuyihlinzeka.Kodwa ngokusobala, i-Airbus ikuthola kunzima ukuthola ozongena esikhundleni.Akufanele futhi kukhohlwe ukuthi i-Airbus ngaphambili yajoyina unswinyo lwe-EU ngokumelene neRussia, okuhlanganisa ukuvinjelwa kwezindiza zaseRussia ekuthumeleni izindiza, ukuhlinzeka izingxenye ezisele, ukulungisa nokugcina izindiza zabagibeli.Ngakho-ke, kulokhu, iRussia kungenzeka ibeke i-embargo ku-Airbus.
Kusukela esimweni se-titanium eRussia, singaphinda siqhathanise izinsiza ezifana nomhlaba ongavamile ezweni lami.Izinqumo zinzima futhi ukulimala kuhlanganisa konke, kodwa yimuphi umonakalo wesikhashana omubi kakhulu noma umonakalo wesikhathi eside noma unomphela?
