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, within 90 days 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 to the 
Federal Register for publication the enclosed notice stating 
that the national emergency with respect to specified harmful 
foreign activities of the Government of the Russian Federation 
declared in Executive Order 14024 of April 15, 2021, which was 
expanded in scope in Executive Order 14066 of March 8, 2022, 
and with respect to which additional steps were taken in 
Executive Order 14039 of August 20, 2021, Executive Order 14068 
of March 11, 2022, Executive Order 14071 of April 6, 2022, and 
Executive Order 14114 of December 22, 2023, is to continue in 
effect beyond April 15, 2024.
    Specified harmful foreign activities of the Government of 
the Russian Federation--in particular, efforts to undermine the 
conduct of free and fair democratic elections and democratic 
institutions in the United States and its allies and partners; 
to engage in and facilitate malicious cyber-enabled activities 
against the United States and its allies and partners; to 
foster and use transnational corruption to influence foreign 
governments; to pursue extraterritoria1 activities targeting 
dissidents or journalists; to undermine security in countries 
and regions important to United States national security; and 
to violate well-established principles of international law, 
including respect for the territorial integrity of states--
continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the 
national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United 
States. Therefore, I have determined that it is necessary to 
continue the national emergency declared in Executive Order 
14024 with respect to specified harmful foreign activities of 
the Government of the Russian Federation.

   Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Specified 
 Harmful Foreign Activities of the Government of the Russian Federation

    On April 15, 2021, by Executive Order 14024, I declared a 
national emergency pursuant to the International Emergency 
Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) to deal with the 
unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, 
foreign policy, and economy of the United States constituted by 
specified harmful foreign activities of the Government of the 
Russian Federation. On March 8, 2022, I issued Executive Order 
14066 to expand the scope of the national emergency declared in 
Executive Order 14024. On August 20, 2021, March 11, 2022, 
April 6, 2022, and December 22, 2023, I issued Executive Orders 
14039, 14068, 14071, and 14114, respectively, to take 
additional steps with respect to the national emergency 
declared in Executive Order 14024.
    Specified harmful foreign activities of the Government of 
the Russian Federation--in particular, efforts to undermine the 
conduct of free and fair democratic elections and democratic 
institutions in the United States and its allies and partners; 
to engage in and facilitate malicious cyber-enabled activities 
against the United States and its allies and partners; to 
foster and use transnational corruption to influence foreign 
governments; to pursue extraterritorial activities targeting 
dissidents or journalists; to undermine security in countries 
and regions important to United States national security; and 
to violate well-established principles of international law, 
including respect for the territorial integrity of states--
continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the 
national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United 
States. For this reason, the national emergency declared in 
Executive Order 14024, which was expanded in scope by Executive 
Order 14066, and with respect to which additional steps were 
taken in Executive Orders 14039, 14068, 14071, and 14114, must 
continue in effect beyond April 15, 2024.
    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 
14024.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.

                                               Joseph R. Biden, Jr.
