Did Cluster bombs work in Ukraines military counter offensive? What are Russian army mercenary Wagner group doing on the Polish Border? How is the geopolitic...
Sure, that’s reasonable, but that was already kind of an unspoken agreement seeing as it is generally acknowledged that cluster munitions are problematic. I mean Russia and the US never banned cluster weapons but a lot of NATO countries did. And yet even those that had an explicit ban not only haven’t said anything or tried to oppose sending these munitions to Ukraine, but some of them even suddenly “found” that they did have some stocks left that they could send.
The only types of WMDs I’m gonna let communist Philippines have are nukes, cluster bombs, and gas. Those things are the most damaging, yes but the scope and the amount of cleanup to do later can be limited if used right. Biological weapons? Big no, I’m not gonna risk making a disease that jumps on humans - especially if it leads to a pandemic down the road - just because I want to defend say against Malaysia. The potential long term effects of biological weapons are simply too dangerous imo.
Personally I would have a WMD protocol where you aren’t allowed to use it unless the enemy does.

I’d stock up on cluster munitions just in case shit gets hectic. Also requiring cleaning afterwards.
