Palestinian-Israeli Conflict

U.S. Cluster Bomb Shipment to Ukraine
The PEC is alarmed by the US’s distribution of cluster bombs to Ukraine. This weapon is banned in over 100 countries due to its indiscriminate impact, which could result in disastrous consequences. It is our strong belief that peaceful conflict resolution should be prioritized, and we encourage a global prohibition on cluster bombs.
