yeshuamp<p>&quot;Cluster Munition Monitor found Russia to be responsible for more than 90 percent of the cluster munition attacks that killed and wounded 890 Ukrainians in 2022, the vast majority civilians.&quot;<br />&quot;Russia’s state-controlled media – propaganda outlets manage to discuss cluster munitions without mentioning its documentation of Russia’s repeated use of cluster munitions in Ukraine&quot;<br /><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/clustermunitions" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>clustermunitions</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/banclusterbombs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>banclusterbombs</span></a><br /><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/whatshappeninginrussia" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>whatshappeninginrussia</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/09/06/russia-denies-its-widespread-use-cluster-munitions" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">hrw.org/news/2023/09/06/russia</span><span class="invisible">-denies-its-widespread-use-cluster-munitions</span></a></p>

yeshuamp<p>The Official Website of the Chinese People&#39;s Liberation Army(<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PLA" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>PLA</span></a>) condemns <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>US</span></a> shipments of <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/clustermunitions" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>clustermunitions</span></a> to <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Ukraine</span></a>, because they &quot;pose long-term threats to the civilians&quot;. So far so good, but it does not equally condemn use by <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Russia" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Russia</span></a>. It would be good if this article were a serious rethinking of <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/China" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>China</span></a>&#39;s policy on cluster munitions and result in a decision to join the global ban by acceding to the Convention on Cluster Munitions. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/banclusterbombs" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>banclusterbombs</span></a> <a href="http://eng.chinamil.com.cn/OPINIONS_209196/Opinions_209197/16240659.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no"><span class="invisible">http://</span><span class="ellipsis">eng.chinamil.com.cn/OPINIONS_2</span><span class="invisible">09196/Opinions_209197/16240659.html</span></a></p>
der Laokrat (he/him)<p>Es ist grausam, dass die USA jetzt wirklich Streumunition an die <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ukraine</span></a> liefern (und der Nato-Chef das noch gutheißt). Bei allem Leid, bei aller Notwendigkeit zur Selbstverteidigung, Streumunition gehört international geächtet und zerstört, nicht in einem Krieg eingesetzt. <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/banclusterbombs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>banclusterbombs</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/clusterbombs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>clusterbombs</span></a></p>
