Ukrainian Missile Sales

A claim is made in the article that Ukraine sold missiles to Iran, but the referenced article seems to indicate that these were black-market items which Ukraine has confirmed/admitted were sold to Iran without any admission that this transaction was undertaken by Ukraine itself. In other words, that items are sold on the black-market in or through a particular state doesn't necessarily mean that state had anything to do with the sale of said goods. Are there other sources that indicate that Ukraine was indeed involved here, is this out of context, or is the statement simply poorly worded and misleading? At a minimum it seems that the article should be changed to reflect what the referenced work states, which is that the goods were sold on the black market via Ukraine and not actually sold by Ukraine, until and unless a reference supporting Ukrainian inclusion in this matter is sourced.Syr74 (talk) 08:11, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
