Presidential Notice 13441

Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Lebanon

This notice continues for one year the national emergency with respect to Lebanon originally declared by Executive Order 13441 on August 1, 2007. The continuation is based on ongoing threats from Iran's arms transfers to and funding of Hizballah, which the President determines continue to undermine Lebanese sovereignty and threaten U.S. national security and foreign policy interests.
