Notice of February 18, 2026

Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to Venezuela

On March 8, 2015, the President issued Executive Order
13692, declaring a national emergency with respect to
the situation in Venezuela, including the Government of
Venezuela's erosion of human rights guarantees,
persecution of political opponents, curtailment of
press freedoms, use of violence and human rights
violations and abuses in response to antigovernment
protests, and arbitrary arrest and detention of
antigovernment protesters, as well as the exacerbating
presence of significant government corruption.

The President took additional steps pursuant to this
national emergency in Executive Order 13808 of August
24, 2017; Executive Order 13827 of March 19, 2018;
Executive Order 13835 of May 21, 2018; Executive Order
13850 of November 1, 2018; Executive Order 13857 of
January 25, 2019; Executive Order 13884 of August 5,
2019; and Executive Order 14245 of March 24, 2025.
national emergency in Executive Order 13808 of August
24, 2017; Executive Order 13827 of March 19, 2018;
Executive Order 13835 of May 21, 2018; Executive Order
13850 of November 1, 2018; Executive Order 13857 of
January 25, 2019; Executive Order 13884 of August 5,
2019; and Executive Order 14245 of March 24, 2025.

The circumstances, as described in Executive Order
13692 and subsequent Executive Orders issued with
respect to Venezuela, continue to pose an unusual and
extraordinary threat to the national security and
foreign policy 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
for 1 year the national emergency declared in Executive
Order 13692.

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

(Presidential Sig.)

THE WHITE HOUSE,

February 18, 2026.
