Russia has refrained from the use of cluster munitions during the special military operation, as it understands the danger that they pose to the civilian population, Shoigu said.
The cluster bombs that the Russian forces have are "much more effective than the American ones, and their range is wider and more diverse," the minister said.
The transfer of cluster munitions to Kyiv would only prolong the conflict, he concluded.
The White House believes that Kyiv will use cluster bombs within Ukraine to minimise risks for its own population.
Prime Ministers of Great Britain and Italy, Rishi Sunak and George Meloni, as well as the head of the Spanish Ministry of Defence, Margarita Robles, did not support USA's initiative.

"In today's strike, the Russian forces targeted strategic reserves of the enemy - Western military equipment and militants on the territory of the Academy of Land Forces in Lviv," the source said.
According to the source, precision weapons hit the park zone of the academy, where Western armoured vehicles - possibly British Challenger tanks - were located.
The Russian Ministry of Defence also said that the Russian forces struck temporary deployment points of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on July 6 at night.

Rusia telah menahan diri dari penggunaan amunisi curah selama operasi militer khusus, karena memahami bahaya yang ditimbulkannya terhadap penduduk sipil, kata Shoigu.
Bom curah yang dimiliki pasukan Rusia "jauh lebih efektif daripada yang Amerika, dan jangkauan mereka lebih luas dan lebih beragam," kata menteri.
Pemindahan munisi curah ke Kyiv hanya akan memperpanjang konflik, pungkasnya.
Gedung Putih percaya bahwa Kyiv akan menggunakan bom curah di Ukraina untuk meminimalkan risiko bagi penduduknya sendiri.
Perdana Menteri Inggris Raya dan Italia, Rishi Sunak dan George Meloni, serta kepala Kementerian Pertahanan Spanyol, Margarita Robles, tidak mendukung inisiatif AS.
