A new benchmark, CLLPU, assesses multilingual LLM unlearning by evaluating the extent of knowledge suppression across languages. Experiments with Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct show that universal suppression often fails to fully remove target knowledge, while language-conditioned confinement leads to uncontrolled propagation.
