A Russian official pointed out thatdepleted uranium munitions,and the depleted uranium armorin newer model Abrams tanks,will cause lasting danger in Ukraine.I can't estimate whether depleted uranium munitions will injure asmany Ukrainians as the Putin forces' weapons. But comparing the twois irrelevant, because they are independent problems.I expect that the US government will use the fact that this comes fromhypocritical Putin to pretend that the danger is just one of Putin'slies. He can't believe anything on his say-so lie, but this time whathe said was accurate.Putin does not care about Ukrainian lives. He might care abouthypothetical Russians who might someday live on conquered Ukrainianterritory. But what Putin thinks is a side issue. If futureUkrainian lives matter to us, we should push for the US to protectUkraine from depleted uranium, regardless of what Putin thinks.I saw a headline today that the US plans to give Ukraine the newAbrams tanks with depleted uranium in the armor.
