Putin: Russia reserves the right to retaliate if cluster munitions are used against it
Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned that Russia reserves the right to use cluster munitions in response to Ukraine’s use of these weapons.
RT quoted Putin as saying today: “Russia has not needed to use cluster munitions yet, but if they are used against it, we reserve the right to respond”.
He pointed out that “Russia has a sufficient reserve of various kinds of cluster munitions, various kinds. So far we have not done it, we have not used them, and we have not had such a need, despite a certain shortage in munitions at a certain point of time. But we didn’t do this,”
Putin added: If they are used against us, we have the right to act in response.
