TL;DR Summary

President Biden defended his decision to provide cluster munitions to Ukraine, despite reservations from allies and criticism from Democrats. Biden stated that Ukraine was running out of ammunition and leaving them defenseless against Russian forces was not an option. The decision to supply cluster munitions, which are outlawed by many countries, was seen as a temporary measure until Ukraine's production of conventional artillery rounds could be ramped up. The move could complicate efforts to demonstrate unity at the upcoming NATO summit.
