Notice of March 31, 2015
Continuation of the National Emergency With
Respect to South Sudan
On April 3, 2014, by Executive Order 13664, I declared
a national emergency to deal with the unusual and
extraordinary threat to the national security and
foreign policy of the United States constituted by the
situation in and in relation to South Sudan, which has
been marked by activities that threaten the peace,
security, or stability of South Sudan and the
surrounding region, including widespread violence and
atrocities, human rights abuses, recruitment and use of
child soldiers, attacks on peacekeepers, and
obstruction of humanitarian operations.
The situation in and in relation to South Sudan
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 3, 2014, to deal with that threat
must continue in effect beyond April 3, 2015.
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 13664.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
and transmitted to the Congress.
(Presidential Sig.)
THE WHITE HOUSE,
March 31, 2015.
