Biden Administration to Send Cluster Bombs to Ukraine: What Has the Church Said?

An employee walks past part of a rocket that sits wedged in the ground in an area at the Veres farm in Novomykolaivka, eastern Ukraine, Saturday, Sept. 10, 2022. All work has halted on this large eastern Ukrainian farm, whose fields and compound have been hit so many times by mortars, rockets, missiles and cluster bombs that its workers are unable to sow the crater-scarred land or harvest any crops.

Current U.S. law prohibits the production, use, or transfer of cluster munitions with failure rates over 1%, however, that law can be overridden by the president if he deems it vital to U.S. national security.
