Ok. If that is correct then my mistake. I guess I didn't get that detail from my initial source. That makes me curious thought, who is being granted the approval from the president? Isn't the executive branch of the goverment who desides for the export in the first place?

I think this page here will help you out with all that kind of information:

It looks like the Bureau of Political-Military Affairs handle approvals in the State Department.
