                Notice of November 6, 2017

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to Burundi

                On November 22, 2015, by Executive Order 13712, the 
                President declared a national emergency to deal with 
                the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national 
                security and foreign policy of the United States 
                constituted by the situation in Burundi, which has been 
                marked by the killing of and violence against 
                civilians, unrest, the incitement of imminent violence, 
                and significant political repression, and which 
                threatens the peace, security, and stability of Burundi 
                and the region.

                The situation in Burundi continues to pose an unusual 
                and extraordinary threat to the national security and 
                foreign policy of the United States. For this reason, 
                the national emergency declared on November 22, 2015, 
                to deal with that threat must continue in effect beyond 
                November 22, 2017. 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 13712.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register 
                and transmitted to the Congress.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    November 6, 2017.
