Title 3--
The President
                Notice of December 22, 1994


Continuation of Libyan Emergency

                On January 7, 1986, by Executive Order No. 12543, 
                President Reagan 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 actions and policies of the 
                Government of Libya. On January 8, 1986, by Executive 
                Order No. 12544, the President took additional measures 
                to block Libyan assets in the United States. The 
                President has transmitted a notice continuing this 
                emergency to the Congress and the Federal Register 
                every year since 1986.

                The crisis between the United States and Libya that led 
                to the declaration of a national emergency on January 
                7, 1986, has not been resolved. The Government of Libya 
                has continued its actions and policies in support of 
                terrorism, despite the calls by the United Nations 
                Security Council, in Resolutions 731 (1992), 748 
                (1992), and 883 (1993) that it demonstrate by concrete 
                actions its renunciation of such terrorism. Such Libyan 
                actions and policies pose a continuing unusual and 
                extraordinary threat to the national security and vital 
                foreign policy interest of the United States. For these 
                reasons, the national emergency declared on January 7, 
                1986, and the measures adopted on January 7 and January 
                8, 1986, to deal with that emergency, must continue in 
                effect beyond January 7, 1995. Therefore, in accordance 
                with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 
                U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing the national emergency 
                with respect to Libya. This notice shall be published 
                in the Federal Register and transmitted to the 
                Congress.

                    (Presidential Sig.)>


                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    December 22, 1994.
