Notice of March 1, 2023
Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to Zimbabwe
On March 6, 2003, by Executive Order 13288, the
President declared a national emergency and blocked the
property of certain persons, pursuant to the
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C.
1701-1706), to deal with the unusual and extraordinary
threat to the foreign policy of the United States
constituted by the actions and policies of certain
members of the Government of Zimbabwe and other persons
to undermine Zimbabwe's democratic processes or
institutions. These actions and policies had
contributed to the deliberate breakdown in the rule of
law in Zimbabwe, to politically motivated violence and
intimidation in that country, and to political and
economic instability in the southern African region.
On November 22, 2005, the President issued Executive
Order 13391 to take additional steps with respect to
the national emergency declared in Executive Order
13288 by ordering the blocking of property of
additional persons undermining democratic processes or
institutions in Zimbabwe.
On July 25, 2008, the President issued Executive Order
13469, which expanded the scope of the national
emergency declared in Executive Order 13288 and
authorized the blocking of property of additional
persons undermining democratic processes or
institutions in Zimbabwe.
The actions and policies of certain members of the
Government of Zimbabwe and other persons to undermine
Zimbabwe's democratic processes or institutions
continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to
the foreign policy of the United States. For this
reason, the national emergency declared on March 6,
2003, and the measures adopted on that date, on
November 22, 2005, and on July 25, 2008, to deal with
that emergency, 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 13288.
