Hon. Paul D. Ryan,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Speaker: Section 202(d) of the National 
Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)) provides for the automatic 
termination of a national emergency unless, within 90 days 
before 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 to the Federal Register for publication the 
enclosed notice stating that the national emergency with 
respect to the situation in Burundi that was declared in 
Executive Order 13712 of November 22, 2015, is to continue in 
effect beyond November 22, 2018.
    The situation in Burundi, which has been marked by killing 
and other violence against civilians, unrest, the incitement of 
violence, and significant political repression, and which 
threatens the peace, security, and stability of Burundi and the 
region, continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat 
to the national security and foreign policy of the United 
States. For this reason, I have determined that it is necessary 
to continue the national emergency declared in Executive Order 
13712 with respect to the situation in Burundi.
            Sincerely,

                                                   Donald J. Trump.

                              ----------                              


     Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Burundi

    On November 22, 2015, by Executive Order 13712, the 
President 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 Burundi, which has been marked by the killing of 
and violence against civilians, unrest, the incitement of 
imminent violence, and significant political repression, and 
which threatens the peace, security, and stability of Burundi 
and the region.
    The situation in Burundi 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 November 22, 2015, to deal with that 
threat must continue in effect beyond November 22, 2018. 
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 13712.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.

                                                   Donald J. Trump.
    The White House, November 16, 2018.
