Notice of April 9, 2024
Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to Somalia
On April 12, 2010, by Executive Order 13536, 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 deterioration of
the security situation and the persistence of violence
in Somalia; acts of piracy and armed robbery at sea off
the coast of Somalia, which have been the subject of
United Nations Security Council resolutions; and
violations of the arms embargo imposed by the United
Nations Security Council.
On July 20, 2012, the President issued Executive Order
13620 to take additional steps to deal with the
national emergency declared in Executive Order 13536 in
view of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2036
of February 22, 2012, and Resolution 2002 of July 29,
2011, and to address: exports of charcoal from Somalia,
which generate significant revenue for al-Shabaab; the
misappropriation of Somali public assets; and certain
acts of violence committed against civilians in
Somalia, all of which contribute to the deterioration
of the security situation and the persistence of
violence in Somalia.
The situation with respect to Somalia 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 on April
12, 2010, and the measures adopted on that date and on
July 20, 2012, to deal with that threat, must continue
in effect beyond April 12, 2024. 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 13536.
