                Notice of October 24, 2023

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to the Democratic Republic of the Congo

                On October 27, 2006, by Executive Order 13413, 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 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. The 
                President took additional steps to address this 
                national emergency in Executive Order 13671 of July 8, 
                2014.

                The situation in or in relation to the Democratic 
                Republic of the Congo continues to pose an unusual and 
                extraordinary threat to the foreign policy of the 
                United States. For this reason, the national emergency 
                declared in Executive Order 13413 of October 27, 2006, 
                as amended by Executive Order 13671 of July 8, 2014, 
                must continue in effect beyond October 27, 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 with 
                respect to the situation in or in relation to the 
                Democratic Republic of the Congo declared in Executive 
                Order 13413, as amended by Executive Order 13671.

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

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    October 24, 2023.
