89-11                      WASHINGTON : 2000

To the Congress of the United States:
    Section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 
1622(d)) provides for the automatic termination of a national 
emergency unless, prior to the anniversary date of its 
declaration, the President publishes in the Federal Register 
and transmits to the Congress a notice stating that the 
emergency is to continue in effect beyond the anniversary date. 
In accordance with this provision, I have sent the enclosed 
notice, stating that the Sudan emergency is to continue in 
effect beyond November 3, 2000, to the Federal Register for 
publication.
    The crisis between the United States and Sudan that led to 
the declaration on November 3, 1997, of a national emergency 
has not been resolved. The Government of Sudan has continued 
its activities hostile to United States interests. Such 
Sudanese actions and policies pose a continuing unusual and 
extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign 
policy of the United States. For these reasons, I have 
determined that it is necessary to maintain in force the broad 
authorities necessary to apply economic pressure on the 
Government of Sudan.
                                                William J. Clinton.
    The White House, October 31, 2000.

                                 Notice

                              ----------                              


                    Continuation of Sudan Emergency

    On November 3, 1997, by Executive Order 13067, 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 actions and policies of the 
Government of Sudan. By Executive Order 13067, I imposed trade 
sanctions on Sudan and blocked Sudanese government assets. 
Because the Government of Sudan has continued its activities 
hostile to United States interests, the national emergency 
declared on November 3, 1997, and the measures adopted on that 
date to deal with that emergency must continue in effect beyond 
November 3, 2000. Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) 
of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am 
continuing the national emergency for 1 year with respect to 
Sudan.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.
                                                William J. Clinton.
