Notice of May 10, 2018

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 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 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--threatens the

peace, security, or stability of the Central African

Republic and neighboring states.

an

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--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 on May 12, 2014, to deal with that

threat must continue in effect beyond May 12, 2018.

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 13667.

This notice shall be published in the Federal Register

and transmitted to the Congress.

(Presidential Sig.)

May 10, 2018.
