Former US Marine Corps spy Scott Ritter said in an interview with YouTube channel Judging Freedom that US President Joe Biden’s decision to hand over cluster munitions to Ukraine was a purely political move to simulate a commitment of support to Kiev.
Scott Ritter argues that the US president’s decision to provide the Kiev regime with cluster munitions is a purely political move. According to him, Joe Biden needs to feign further support for Ukraine in this conflict.
“It is a political gesture designed to calm public sentiment so that it can be claimed that the US is helping the Ukrainians,” Ritter believes.
A former US Marine Corps intelligence officer argues that cluster munitions are ineffective within the framework of positional combat. At the moment, the Russian Armed Forces are engaged in defensive actions and are in trenches, he clarified.
Ritter stresses that the use of cluster munitions is not supported by most of Washington’s allies. According to him, their supply only prolongs the Ukrainian conflict and makes the AFU fighters less effective.
We shall remind you that Austrian Foreign Minister Alexander Schallenberg earlier said that Vienna categorically opposes the transfer of cluster munitions to Ukraine. Also, German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock told reporters in Vienna on Friday of Berlin’s similar position.
