US President Joe Biden has faced criticism for his controversial decision to provide Ukraine with cluster bombs, despite their record of causing civilian casualties. President Biden defended his choice, stating that it was a “very difficult decision” that he made because “the Ukrainians are running out of ammunition.”
The move, which goes against the ban on cluster bombs in more than 120 countries, has drawn mixed reactions. Ukraine’s leader expressed gratitude for the “timely” military aid package worth $800 million, while a Moscow envoy criticized Washington’s “cynicism.”
