France and China signed separate, individual agreements.

The UK and France have clearly followed (and exceeded, via direct military aid it does not require) the requirements of the memorandum.

I can't find the text of China's agreement.




As has the US with all of their aid.

Yet, the US is the one that is forever chided for being negligent to the terms of the agreement.

As I've noted upthread.

The US has absolutely complied with the Budapest Memorandum's requirements.

Military aid isn't required, it's just a good idea. The recent withdrawal of aid is a betrayal of an ally, but not a violation of the Memorandum.
