                Executive Order 14022 of April 1, 2021

                
Termination of Emergency With Respect to the 
                International Criminal Court

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, including the International Emergency Economic 
                Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), the National 
                Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) (NEA), section 
                212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 
                (8 U.S.C. 1182(f)), and section 301 of title 3, United 
                States Code,

                I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States 
                of America, find that, although the United States 
                continues to object to the International Criminal 
                Court's (ICC) assertions of jurisdiction over personnel 
                of such non-States Parties as the United States and its 
                allies absent their consent or referral by the United 
                Nations Security Council and will vigorously protect 
                current and former United States personnel from any 
                attempts to exercise such jurisdiction, the threat and 
                imposition of financial sanctions against the Court, 
                its personnel, and those who assist it are not an 
                effective or appropriate strategy for addressing the 
                United States' concerns with the ICC.

                Accordingly, I hereby terminate the national emergency 
                declared in Executive Order 13928 of June 11, 2020 
                (Blocking Property of Certain Persons Associated With 
                the International Criminal Court), and revoke that 
                order, and further order:

                Section 1. In light of the revocation of Executive 
                Order 13928, the suspension of entry as immigrants and 
                nonimmigrants of individuals meeting the criteria set 
                forth in section 1(a) of that order will no longer be 
                in effect as of the date of this order and such 
                individuals will no longer be treated as persons 
                covered by Presidential Proclamation 8693 of July 24, 
                2011 (Suspension of Entry of Aliens Subject to United 
                Nations Security Council Travel Bans and International 
                Emergency Economic Powers Act Sanctions).

                Sec. 2. Pursuant to section 202(a) of the NEA (50 
                U.S.C. 1622(a)), termination of the national emergency 
                declared in Executive Order 13928 shall not affect any 
                action taken or proceeding pending not finally 
                concluded or determined as of the date of this order, 
                any action or proceeding based on any act committed 
                prior to the date of this order, or any rights or 
                duties that matured or penalties that were incurred 
                prior to the date of this order.

                Sec. 3. (a) Nothing in this order shall be construed to 
                impair or otherwise affect:

(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or 
the head thereof; or

(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget 
relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.

                    (b) This order shall be implemented consistent with 
                applicable law and subject to the availability of 
                appropriations.

                    (c) This order is not intended to, and does not, 
                create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, 
                enforceable at law or in equity by any party against 
                the United States, its departments, agencies, or 
                entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any 
                other person.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    April 1, 2021.
