To the Congress of the United States:
  Section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1522(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 North Korea that 
was declared in Executive Order (E.O.) 13466 of June 26, 2008, expanded 
in scope in E.O. 13551 of August 30, 2010, and addressed further in 
E.O. 13570 of April 18, 2011, is to continue in effect beyond June 26, 
2014.

North Korea that destabilize the Korean Peninsula and imperil U.S. 
Armed Forces, allies, and trading partners in the region, continue to 
constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national 
security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. For this 
reason, I have determined that it is necessary to continue the national 
emergency with respect to North Korea.
                                                        Barack Obama.  
The White House, June 20, 2014.
