Olaf Scholz succeeds in squaring the circle: after When cluster munitions from the USA arrived in Ukraine, the Chancellor defended Washington’s decision, but at the same time emphasized why this type of munition should be banned. The US government “made a decision that is not ours, but that it made sovereignly,” said Scholz, pointing out that otherwise it would not be able to provide sufficient ammunition. “But I want to say again: This convention is of great importance to me.” It’s not at all about the weapon and its effect in war operations,”for all the weapons we supply cause terrible destruction when they hit their targets“It’s more about “that after the war and outside of the warring parties, others are not threatened by ammunition lying around by chance”.
