Notice of November 8, 2018

Continuation of the National Emergency With

Respect to Iran

On November 14, 1979, in Executive Order 12170, the

President declared a national emergency with respect to

Iran pursuant to the International Emergency Economic

Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706) and took related steps

to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to

the national security, foreign policy, and economy of

the United States constituted by the situation in Iran.

lared a national emergency with respect to

Iran pursuant to the International Emergency Economic

Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706) and took related steps

to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to

the national security, foreign policy, and economy of

the United States constituted by the situation in Iran.

Our relations with Iran have not yet normalized, and

the process of implementing the agreements with Iran,

dated January 19, 1981, is ongoing. For this reason,

the national emergency declared on November 14, 1979,

and the measures adopted on that date to deal with that

emergency, must continue in effect beyond November 14,

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 with

respect to Iran declared in Executive Order 12170.

The emergency declared in Executive Order 12170 is

distinct from the emergency declared in Executive Order

12957 on March 15, 1995. This renewal, therefore, is

distinct from the emergency renewal of March 12, 2018.

This notice shall be published in the Federal Register

and transmitted to the Congress.

(Presidential Sig.)

THE WHITE HOUSE,

November 8, 2018.
