US says Russia used chemical weapons in Ukraine
by Nate Ostiller May 2, 2024 1:55 PM
The U.S. State Department said on May 1 that Russian forces have used the chemical agent chloropicrin in Ukraine.
The announcement was part of a larger statement about the introduction of new U.S. sanctions against more than 280 individuals and entities.
Ukrainian military officials have previously accused Russia of using chloropicrin and other chemical weapons.
Chloropicrin is often used as an herbicide. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC), exposure to its vapors can cause severe irritation to the skin, eyes, and, if inhaled, internal organs.
Although less lethal than other chemical weapons, it was used extensively in World War I before the 1925 Geneva Protocol prohibited the use of chemical and biological weapons in war.

Is that why a PC with less power than a cell phone was $10k? Median income, adjusted for inflation has almost doubled. People have a LOT more toys than in 1980. We also eat out several times more per week than 1980.
