Rishi Sunak responds to US giving cluster bombs to Ukraine
Prime minister Rishi Sunak has responded to the US announcement that it will provide cluster munitions to Ukraine.
President Biden said his decision to give the weapons to Ukraine was a "very difficult decision".
During the war both Russia and Ukraine have used cluster bombs, but they have been banned by more than 120 countries.
The UK is one of a number of countries that had signed up to a convention that prohibits the production or use of cluster munitions and discourages their use.
