Notice of October 28, 2021
Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to Sudan
On November 3, 1997, by Executive Order 13067, the
President declared a national emergency with respect to
Sudan 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 and foreign policy of the
United States posed by the actions and policies of the
Government of Sudan. On April 26, 2006, by Executive
Order 13400, the President determined that the conflict
in Sudan's Darfur region posed an unusual and
extraordinary threat to the national security and
foreign policy of the United States, expanded the scope
of the national emergency declared in Executive Order
13067, and ordered the blocking of property of certain
persons connected to the Darfur region. On October 13,
2006, by Executive Order 13412, the President took
additional steps with respect to the national emergency
declared in Executive Order 13067 and expanded in
Executive Order 13400. In Executive Order 13412, the
President also took steps to implement the Darfur Peace
and Accountability Act of 2006 (Public Law 109-344).
On January 13, 2017, by Executive Order 13761, the
President found that positive efforts by the Government
of Sudan between July 2016 and January 2017 improved
certain conditions that Executive Orders 13067 and
13412 were intended to address. Given these
developments, and in order to encourage the Government
of Sudan to sustain and enhance these efforts, section
1 of Executive Order 13761 provided that sections 1 and
2 of Executive Order 13067 and the entirety of
Executive Order 13412 would be revoked as of July 12,
2017, provided that the criteria in section 12(b) of
Executive Order 13761 had been met.
On July 11, 2017, by Executive Order 13804, the
President amended Executive Order 13761, extending
until October 12, 2017, the effective date in section 1
of Executive Order 13761. On October 12, 2017, pursuant
to Executive Order 13761, as amended by Executive Order
13804, sections 1 and 2 of Executive Order 13067 and
the entirety of Executive Order 13412 were revoked.
Sudan made strides in its transition toward democracy
since 2019, but the military takeover of the government
and arrest of civilian leaders now threaten those
positive gains. The crisis that led to the declaration
of a national emergency in Executive Order 13067 of
November 3, 1997; the expansion of that emergency in
Executive Order 13400 of April 26, 2006; and the taking
of additional steps with respect to that emergency in
Executive Order 13412 of October 13, 2006, Executive
Order 13761 of January 13, 2017, and Executive Order
13804 of July 11, 2017, has not been resolved. The
situation in Darfur 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 in Executive Order
13067, as expanded by Executive Order 13400, must
continue in effect beyond November 3, 2021.
