U.S. to Send Cluster Munitions to Ukraine
President Biden and his advisers initially had reservations about supplying cluster munitions to Ukraine, but they ultimately decided to provide the weapons to its military forces due to the shortage of artillery rounds.

In order to bridge the gap in artillery production, Ukraine has been provided with a significant amount of unitary artillery rounds. While domestic production is being ramped up, it’s crucial to ensure Ukraine’s defense capabilities, especially considering the risk of Russian incursion. It’s important to acknowledge that cluster munitions carry a risk of civilian harm, thus the decision was delayed. However, the threat of Russian forces advancing and further endangering Ukrainian civilians outweighed the risks associated with cluster munitions. Ukraine, being their own country and citizens, will utilize any weapon system available to minimize harm to their people.
