Notice of March 1, 2023
Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to Ukraine
On March 6, 2014, by Executive Order 13660, the
President declared a national emergency pursuant to the
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C.
1701-1706) to deal with the unusual and extraordinary
threat to the national security and foreign policy of
the United States constituted by the actions and
policies of persons that undermine democratic processes
and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace,
security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial
integrity; and contribute to the misappropriation of
its assets.
On March 16, 2014, the President issued Executive Order
13661, which expanded the scope of the national
emergency declared in Executive Order 13660, and found
that the actions and policies of the Government of the
Russian Federation with respect to 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.
On March 20, 2014, the President issued Executive Order
13662, which further expanded the scope of the national
emergency declared in Executive Order 13660, as
expanded in scope in Executive Order 13661, and found
that the actions and policies of the Government of the
Russian Federation, including its purported annexation
of Crimea and its use of force in Ukraine, continue to
undermine democratic processes and institutions in
Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability,
sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute
to the misappropriation of its assets.
On December 19, 2014, the President issued Executive
Order 13685, to take additional steps to address the
Russian occupation of the Crimea region of Ukraine.
On September 20, 2018, the President issued Executive
Order 13849, to take additional steps to implement
certain statutory sanctions with respect to the Russian
Federation.
On February 21, 2022, the President issued Executive
Order 14065, which further expanded the scope of the
national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660,
as expanded in scope in Executive Orders 13661 and
13662, and relied on for additional steps taken in
Executive Orders 13685 and 13849, and found that the
Russian Federation's purported recognition of the so-
called Donetsk People's Republic or Luhansk People's
Republic regions of Ukraine contradicts Russia's
commitments under the Minsk agreements and further
threatens the peace, stability, sovereignty, and
territorial integrity of Ukraine, and thereby
constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to the
national security and foreign policy of the United
States.
The actions and policies addressed in these Executive
Orders continue 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 13660, which was
expanded in scope in Executive Order 13661, Executive
Order 13662, and Executive Order 14065, and under which
additional steps were taken in Executive Order 13685
and Executive Order 13849, must continue in effect
beyond March 6, 2023.

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 13660.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
and transmitted to the Congress.
