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 Belarus that was 
declared in Executive Order 13405 of June 16, 2006, which was 
expanded in scope in Executive Order 14038 of August 9, 2021, 
is to continue in effect beyond June 16, 2025.
    The actions and policies of certain members of the 
Government of Belarus and other persons, and the Belarusian 
regime's harmful activities and long-standing abuses, continue 
to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national 
security and foreign policy of the United States. Therefore, I 
have determined that it is necessary to continue the national 
emergency declared in Executive Order 13405 with respect to 
Belarus.

                                                   Donald J. Trump.

                                 Notice

                              ----------                              


     Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Belarus

    On June 16, 2006, by Executive Order 13405, the President 
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 and foreign policy of the United States constituted by 
the actions and policies of certain members of the Government 
of Belarus and other persons to undermine Belarus's democratic 
processes or institutions, manifested in the fundamentally 
undemocratic March 2006 elections; to commit human rights 
abuses related to political repression, including detentions 
and disappearances; and to engage in public corruption, 
including by diverting or misusing Belarusian public assets or 
by misusing public authority.
    On August 9, 2021, by Executive Order 14038, the President 
expanded the scope of the national emergency declared in 
Executive Order 13405, finding that the Belarusian regime's 
harmful activities and long-standing abuses aimed at 
suppressing democracy and the exercise of human rights and 
fundamental freedoms in Belarus--including illicit and 
oppressive activities stemming from the August 9, 2020, 
fraudulent Belarusian presidential election and its aftermath, 
such as the elimination of political opposition and civil 
society organizations and the regime's disruption and 
endangering of international civil air travel--constituted an 
unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and 
foreign policy of the United States.
    The actions and policies of certain members of the 
Government of Belarus and other persons, and the Belarusian 
regime's harmful activities and long-standing abuses, continue 
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 in Executive Order 
13405, which was expanded in scope in Executive Order 14038, 
must continue in effect beyond June 16, 2025. 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 13405.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.

                                                   Donald J. Trump.
    The White House, June 9, 2025.
