Executive Order 13661 of March 16, 2014
Blocking Property of Additional Persons
Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine
By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of
America, including the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the
National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.)
(NEA), section 212(f) of the Immigration and
Nationality Act of 1952 (8 U.S.C. 1182(f)), and section
301 of title 3, United States Code,
I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of
America, hereby expand the scope of the national
emergency declared in Executive Order 13660 of March 6,
2014, finding that the actions and policies of the
Government of the Russian Federation with respect to
Ukraine--including the recent deployment of Russian
Federation military forces in the Crimea region of
Ukraine--undermine democratic processes and
institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security,
stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and
contribute to the misappropriation of its assets, and
thereby constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat
to the national security and foreign policy of the
United States. Accordingly, I hereby order:
Section 1. (a) All property and interests in property
that are in the United States, that hereafter come
within the United States, or that are or hereafter come
within the possession or control of any United States
person (including any foreign branch) of the following
persons are blocked and may not be transferred, paid,
exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in:
(i) the persons listed in the Annex to this order; and
(ii) persons determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation
with the Secretary of State:
(A) to be an official of the Government of the Russian Federation;
(B) to operate in the arms or related materiel sector in the Russian
Federation;
(C) to be owned or controlled by, or to have acted or purported to act
for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly:
(1) a senior official of the Government of the Russian Federation; or
(2) a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant
to this order; or
(D) to have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial,
material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or in
support of:
(1) a senior official of the Government of the Russian Federation; or
(2) a person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant
to this order.
(b) The prohibitions in subsection (a) of this
section apply except to the extent provided by
statutes, or in regulations, orders, directives, or
licenses that may be issued pursuant to this order, and
notwithstanding any contract entered into or any
license or permit granted prior to the effective date
of this order.
Sec. 2. I hereby find that the unrestricted immigrant
and nonimmigrant entry into the United States of aliens
determined to meet one or more of the criteria in
section 1(a) of this order would be detrimental to the
interests of the United States, and I hereby suspend
entry into the United
[[Page 15536]]
States, as immigrants or nonimmigrants, of such
persons. Such persons shall be treated as persons
covered by section 1 of Proclamation 8693 of July 24,
2011 (Suspension of Entry of Aliens Subject to United
Nations Security Council Travel Bans and International
Emergency Economic Powers Act Sanctions).
Sec. 3. I hereby determine that the making of donations
of the type of articles specified in section 203(b)(2)
of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by, to, or for the
benefit of any person whose property and interests in
property are blocked pursuant to section 1 of this
order would seriously impair my ability to deal with
the national emergency declared in Executive Order
13660, and I hereby prohibit such donations as provided
by section 1 of this order.
Sec. 4. The prohibitions in section 1 of this order
include but are not limited to:
(a) the making of any contribution or provision of
funds, goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of
any person whose property and interests in property are
blocked pursuant to this order; and
(b) the receipt of any contribution or provision of
funds, goods, or services from any such person.
Sec. 5. (a) Any transaction that evades or avoids, has
the purpose of evading or avoiding, causes a violation
of, or attempts to violate any of the prohibitions set
forth in this order is prohibited.
(b) Any conspiracy formed to violate any of the
prohibitions set forth in this order is prohibited.
Sec. 6. For the purposes of this order:
(a) the term ``person'' means an individual or
entity;
(b) the term ``entity'' means a partnership,
association, trust, joint venture, corporation, group,
subgroup, or other organization;
(c) the term ``United States person'' means any
United States citizen, permanent resident alien, entity
organized under the laws of the United States or any
jurisdiction within the United States (including
foreign branches), or any person in the United States;
and
(d) the term the ``Government of the Russian
Federation'' means the Government of the Russian
Federation, any political subdivision, agency, or
instrumentality thereof, including the Central Bank of
the Government of the Russian Federation, and any
person owned or controlled by, or acting for or on
behalf of, the Government of the Russian Federation.
Sec. 7. For those persons whose property and interests
in property are blocked pursuant to this order who
might have a constitutional presence in the United
States, I find that because of the ability to transfer
funds or other assets instantaneously, prior notice to
such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this
order would render those measures ineffectual. I
therefore determine that for these measures to be
effective in addressing the national emergency declared
in Executive Order 13660, there need be no prior notice
of a listing or determination made pursuant to section
1 of this order.
Sec. 8. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation
with the Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to
take such actions, including the promulgation of rules
and regulations, and to employ all powers granted to
the President by IEEPA, as may be necessary to carry
out the purposes of this order. The Secretary of the
Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other
officers and agencies of the United States Government
consistent with applicable law. All agencies of the
United States Government are hereby directed to take
all appropriate measures within their authority to
carry out the provisions of this order.
Sec. 9. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation
with the Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to
determine that circumstances no longer warrant the
blocking of the property and interests in property of a
person
[[Page 15537]]
listed in the Annex to this order, and to take
necessary action to give effect to that determination.
Sec. 10. This order is not intended to, and does not,
create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural,
enforceable at law or in equity by any party against
the United States, its departments, agencies, or
entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any
other person.
Sec. 11. This order is effective at 12:01 a.m. eastern
daylight time on March 17, 2014.
