Secret to whom? Were they supposed to file permits with the US after we cut them off?

Yes, they need a license to acquire equipment. It’s in the article.

I double checked and couldn't find mention of a license. There was a handwave towards "evading sanctions" but not much detail.

I think the link was changed or comments merged. The article I was referencing was on Bloomberg I believe.

To propagandists hired to write propaganda.
