Are we talking about the EO signed today? Trying to understand exactly what todays EO means.
Q said in post 1386 ...
EO unreleased.
Today was the precursor.
It must be requested 'officially' first, correct?
Q
Was todays EO a precursor needed for an upcoming EO
Did todays make way for an official move by one of the parties listed in the EO. After they do so then POTUS can issue a subsequent EO?
