Presidential Notice 13067

Continuation of Sudan Emergency

President Bush continued for one year the national emergency with respect to Sudan originally declared in 1997 under Executive Order 13067, citing ongoing concerns about Sudan's support for terrorism and human rights violations including slavery and restrictions on religious and political freedom. The continuation is required under section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act, which mandates annual renewal to keep the emergency and its associated sanctions measures in effect.
