Notice of February 13, 2026

Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to Cuba and of the Emergency Authority Relating
to the Regulation of the Anchorage and Movement of
Vessels

On March 1, 1996, by Proclamation 6867, a national
emergency was declared to address the disturbance or
threatened disturbance of international relations
caused by the February 24, 1996, destruction by the
Cuban government of two unarmed, United States-
registered civilian aircraft in international airspace
north of Cuba. On February 26, 2004, by Proclamation
7757, the national emergency was expanded to deny
monetary and material support to the Cuban government
caused by the February 24, 1996, destruction by the
Cuban government of two unarmed, United States-
registered civilian aircraft in international airspace
north of Cuba. On February 26, 2004, by Proclamation
7757, the national emergency was expanded to deny
monetary and material support to the Cuban government.
On February 24, 2016, by Proclamation 9398, and on
February 22, 2018, by Proclamation 9699, the national
emergency was further modified based on continued
disturbances or threatened disturbances of the
international relations of the United States related to
Cuba. The Cuban government has not demonstrated that it
will refrain from the use of excessive force against
United States vessels or aircraft that may engage in
memorial activities or peaceful protest north of Cuba.

Further, the unauthorized entry of any United States-
registered vessel into Cuban territorial waters
continues to be detrimental to the foreign policy of
the United States because such entry could facilitate a
mass migration from Cuba. It continues to be United
States policy that a mass migration from Cuba would
endanger United States national security by posing a
disturbance or threatened disturbance of the
international relations of the United States.

Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the
National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am
continuing the national emergency with respect to Cuba
and the emergency authority relating to the regulation
of the anchorage and movement of vessels set out in
Proclamation 6867, as amended by Proclamation 7757,
Proclamation 9398, and Proclamation 9699.

This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
and transmitted to the Congress.

(Presidential Sig.)

THE WHITE HOUSE,

February 13, 2026.
