France has export controls too [1], as most of the G20 [2]. However I do not believe that the entire export control regime is flawed, since it is primarily designed to prevent proliferation to less sophisticated countries who have to buy entire weapon systems. In the case of china these controls do not work well, since China can also integrate dual-use goods themselves.
