  1. The US, UK and Russia signed Ukraine's Budapest Memorandum that traded Ukraine's nuclear weapons for security assurances. Russia has exited Ukraine's Budapest Memorandum. France and China have signed a watered-down Budapest Memorandum. US, UK, and France are "respecting" Ukraine's territorial integrity and support "security assurance" for Ukraine and you can't say the same for Russia. US EXIT from Ukraine's Budapest Memorandum has a negative outcome for any non-NATO US allies being in the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). Budapest Memorandum's complete failure will reinforce arguments for independent nuclear weapons for smaller countries. --------- Before Euromaidan, Russia started a trade war against Ukraine, forcing Yanukovych to sign a base rental extension agreement that breached Ukraine Constitution 1996, Article 17 disallows foreign military bases after 2017. Read the Ukraine Constitution 1996, Article 17 which disallows foreign military bases after 2017. CONSTITUTION OF UKRAINE Adopted at the Fifth Session of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine on 28 June 1996 Article 17 The location of foreign military bases shall not be permitted on the territory of Ukraine. Yanukovych breached the Ukraine Constitution 1996, Article 17. After 2017, Ukraine's constitution is incompatible with foreign military bases hosting either NATO or CSTO. If Yanukovych didn't sign the military base rental extension, Russia would be kicked out of Crimea. Putin's narrative is FALSE. Putin's pressure caused Yanukovych to make a mistake.
