United States and Russia never signed the Convention on Cluster Munitions probably for exactly this reason. There are plenty of war crimes United States commited over the years there is not need to accuse them of something they didn’t.
It’s only a war crime under international law if used against civilians. But it would of been an international crime by all use, production, transfer and stockpiling of cluster munitions if they were part of the convention.
That’s usually how international law works. It only becomes mandatory when there’s a critical mass of countries that agree. Yay, “society of states in anarchy”. /s
Doing war crimes to own the Russians 😎
It’s okay when we do it 😎😎😎

How does that work? Is it only a war crime when committed by/against a country that signed?
