The President
Continuation of the National Emergency with Respect to the
Situation in or in Relation to the Democratic Republic of the
Congo
On October 27, 2006, by Executive Order 13413, the President declared
a national emergency with respect to the situation in or in relation to
the Democratic Republic of the Congo and, pursuant to the International
Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701–1706), ordered related
measures blocking the property of certain persons contributing to the conflict
in that country. The President took this action to deal with the unusual
and extraordinary threat to the foreign policy of the United States constituted
by the situation in or in relation to the Democratic Republic of the Congo,
which has been marked by widespread violence and atrocities that continue
to threaten regional stability.
Because this situation continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat
to the foreign policy of the United States, the national emergency declared
on October 27, 2006, and the measures adopted on that date to deal with
that emergency, must continue in effect beyond October 27, 2009. Therefore,
in accordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50
U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency declared
in Executive Order 13413.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to
the Congress.
