REPORT OF THE CONTINUATION OF THE NATIONAL EMERGENCY THAT WAS
ORIGINALLY DECLARED IN EXECUTIVE ORDER 13660 OF MARCH 6, 2014, WITH
RESPECT TO UKRAINE--PM 11
The PRESIDING OFFICER laid before the Senate the following message
from the President of the United States, together with an accompanying
report; which was referred to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and
Urban Affairs:
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 publication the enclosed notice stating
that the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660 of March
6, 2014, which was expanded in scope in Executive Order 13661,
Executive Order 13662, and Executive Order 14065, and under which
additional steps were taken in Executive Order 13685 and Executive
Order 13849, is to continue in effect beyond March 6, 2025.
The actions and policies of persons that undermine democratic
processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security,
stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to
the misappropriation of its assets, as well as the actions and policies
of the Government of the Russian Federation, including its purported
annexation of Crimea and its use of force in Ukraine, 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 13660 with respect to Ukraine.
Donald J. Trump.
The White House, February 27, 2025.
