Mongolia has killed 2 million livestock in the White Plague, so why didn't a country do anything?
Background and situation of the major white disaster in Mongolia.
Mongolia recently experienced an unprecedented white disaster, when it rained heavily for a long time, preventing animals from grazing on the grass. This snow disaster is a rare disaster in the past 50 years, which has had a serious impact on Mongolia's agriculture, animal husbandry and the livelihood of farmers and herdsmen.
Mongolia is a nation with animal husbandry as the main body, and domestic animals are the lifeblood of Mongolian people and an important part of it. However, the continuous snowfall caused snow to accumulate on the meadows, depriving the livestock of food** and starving to death in large numbers. The General Directorate of Emergency Management of Mongolia said on the 24th that as of February 22, the affected area in Mongolia was 806%, and ice and snow disasters accounted for 218%, and 523%。Earlier, 668,000 livestock had died, and now more than 200,000 have died, with a huge impact on animal husbandry and livestock farming in Mongolia. More than 72,000 herders were also affected.
The white disaster caused a large area of snow and snow on the territory of Mongolia, which accounts for 283%。At the same time, 37 herders were more affected by the disaster9%。This disaster is particularly severe in Mongolia, affecting not only the livelihoods of local herders, but also the local agricultural and livestock production chains, as well as the national economy.
Causes and consequences of the White Disaster in Mongolia.
The "white disaster" in Mongolia is the result of a combination of natural causes and human activities. Among them, long-lasting snowfall, snow cover and extremely cold frost are important causes of this disaster. However, the human factor also plays an important role in this.
First, overgrazing is a major factor contributing to the deterioration of grassland ecosystems. Due to the serious degradation of grassland, grassland cannot be completely restored, resulting in grassland degradation and the decline of grassland restoration capacity, resulting in grassland degradation and frequent grassland disasters.
Second, climate change has a certain role in promoting the white peril. In Mongolia, the amount and frequency of snow cover have changed due to rising global temperatures, and the frequency and intensity of snow cover on grasslands have also increased.
The "white plague" in Mongolia has had a great impact on local agriculture, animal husbandry and the livelihood of farmers and herders. The large-scale death of domestic animals has caused huge economic losses to a certain extent, and at the same time, it and its families are facing great pressure to survive. Mongolia's agriculture and animal husbandry are the main pillars of its economy, and the outbreak of the White Plague has had a serious negative impact on the country's social and social development.
Mongolia's "White Peril" role and perception of China and other countries in the world.
The white disaster in Mongolia has aroused widespread concern around the world, and Mongolia's neighbor China is also very concerned. Major Chinese news organizations have reported on the incident, calling on the whole society to care about the situation in Mongolia and extend a helping hand to the herders in the disaster area.
Mongolia is China's close neighbor and sister, and the two sides have very close exchanges and cooperation in the economic, economic, and people-to-people areas. China** and the whole society expressed their deep condolences for the disaster situation in Mongolia and extended a helping hand to it. China provided funds, food, livestock feed and other materials, as well as specialized personnel and technical support. The Red Cross Society of China, non-governmental organizations and individuals have also donated to the disaster-stricken areas in Mongolia and contributed to Mongolia's disaster relief.
However, there is a great deal of disagreement in the international community about the disaster in Mongolia. In contrast to China's unsparing help and concern, others are less concerned about it. Mongolia's geopolitical status, international influence, foreign relations, etc., are closely related to this.
Mongolia is located at the junction of East and Central Asia, and is located in a remote area, with little foreign exchanges. In addition, Mongolia is a small country, with a small population, and underdeveloped economic development, so it is difficult to attract attention from people around the world.
At the same time, in the process of foreign policymaking, different countries are often allocated differently according to their own interests and strategic considerations. Mongolia may not be the primary target of a powerful country, but it will focus more on regions and countries that are at stake in its own security and economic interests.
In addition, there is some selectivity in the coverage of the news, as well as in the choice of news coverage. The news media like to report news that can attract the attention of the audience or is closely related to the interests of the nation, and turn a blind eye to the disasters that occur in certain places. Therefore, the white disaster in Mongolia has not attracted widespread attention.
Mongolia's views on cooperation and foreign relations with the United States.
The article also points out that Mongolia's foreign policy is both conflicting and in relations with the United States. Mongolia has close relations with China and has become increasingly close with the United States, and has signed a number of major cooperation agreements with the United States. However, in the face of the "White Disaster", Mongolia did not receive assistance and assistance from the United States.
There is indeed a partnership between Mongolia and the United States, but Mongolia is not the primary goal of the United States in its foreign policy. The choice of the United States' foreign policy toward China is mainly based on its own interests and strategic considerations, and it has deployed the manpower and material resources it needs. Mongolia's remoteness and relatively weak international influence relative to other regions make the United States a low priority in foreign relations.
In addition, there is a mutually beneficial relationship between Mongolia and the United States. Mongolia has carried out mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation with the United States in military and economic fields. Mongolia's cooperation with the United States is largely due to the fact that it has more choices in the world and a broader scope for development.
In response to the U.S. response to Mongolia in the "White Disaster", this paper argues that Mongolia's response to the "White Disaster" is "confusing". However, due to the limited international attention, the selectivity of the coverage, and the limited public interest, the disaster in Mongolia has not attracted widespread attention.
In short, the outbreak of white plague in Mongolia has had a great impact on local agriculture, animal husbandry, and the lives of farmers and herdsmen, and urgently needs the attention and support of the whole society. Although Mongolia is a partner of the United States, in the face of Mongolia's disaster, countries do not help equally. This may be closely related to Mongolia's geopolitical relations, international influence, and other countries' interests and policies. In the face of disasters, Mongolia must strengthen cooperation and assistance with other countries in the world to improve its disaster relief level. At the same time, Mongolia needs to receive the attention and support of all countries in the world to work together to minimize the damage caused by this disaster to local herders and the local economy.
