Russian President Vladimir Putin has said his country would use cluster bombs if they¡¯re used against his troops, while denying ¡ª despite evidence ¡ª that Kremlin forces have already used the controversial munitions in Ukraine.
¡°Russia has enough of various types of cluster munitions, of various kinds,¡± Putin said in an interview with the Russia-1 TV channel, part of which was posted on the Telegram channel by reporter Pavel Zarubin.
¡°Until now, we have not done this, we have not used it, and we have not had such a need,¡± Putin added. ¡°But, of course, if they are used against us, we reserve the right for mirror actions.¡±
