                Notice of October 12, 2023

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to the Situation in and in Relation to Syria

                On October 14, 2019, by Executive Order 13894, the 
                President declared a national emergency pursuant to the 
                International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 
                1701 et seq.) 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 Syria.

                The situation in and in relation to Syria, and in 
                particular the actions by the Government of Turkey to 
                conduct a military offensive into northeast Syria, 
                undermines the campaign to defeat the Islamic State of 
                Iraq and Syria, or ISIS, endangers civilians, and 
                further threatens to undermine the peace, security, and 
                stability in the region, and 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 13894 of October 14, 2019, must 
                continue in effect beyond October 14, 2023. 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 13894 with respect to the situation in and in 
                relation to Syria.

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

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    October 12, 2023.
