ZimbabweNo national ban
Sources
Red means the country is a member of the 2008 Convention on Cluster Munitions, so using, making, stockpiling or transferring cluster munitions is banned (UN treaty records, November 2026). Amber means it signed but never ratified, so it is not bound. Green means never joined, or left: Lithuania quit in March 2025, the first country ever to do so.

United States: Never joined the 2008 treaty. The US never signed the Convention on Cluster Munitions. Treaties are federal, so states don't differ. Law: Not a signatory or party to the Convention on Cluster Munitions (UNTC XXVI-6). The US sent cluster munitions to Ukraine in at least seven packages, July 2023 to Oct 2024.
