                Notice of May 6, 2021

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to the Central African Republic

                On May 12, 2014, by Executive Order 13667, the 
                President declared a national emergency pursuant to the 
                International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 
                1701-1706) to deal with the unusual and extraordinary 
                threat to the national security and foreign policy of 
                the United States constituted by the situation in and 
                in relation to the Central African Republic, which has 
                been marked by a breakdown of law and order, 
                intersectarian tension, widespread violence and 
                atrocities, and the pervasive, often forced recruitment 
                and use of child soldiers, which threatens the peace, 
                security, or stability of the Central African Republic 
                and neighboring states.

                The situation in and in relation to the Central African 
                Republic 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 in Executive Order 13667 on May 12, 
                2014, to deal with that threat must continue in effect 
                beyond May 12, 2021. Therefore, in accordance with 
                section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 
                U.S.C. 1662(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the 
                national emergency declared with respect to the Central 
                African Republic.

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

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    May 6, 2021.
