                Notice of April 7, 2023

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to Specified Harmful Foreign Activities of the 
                Government of the Russian Federation

                On April 15, 2021, by Executive Order 14024, I 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, foreign policy, and economy of 
                the United States constituted by specified harmful 
                foreign activities of the Government of the Russian 
                Federation. On March 8, 2022, I issued Executive Order 
                14066 to expand the scope of the national emergency 
                declared in Executive Order 14024. On August 20, 2021, 
                March 11, 2022, and April 6, 2022, I issued Executive 
                Orders 14039, 14068, and 14071, respectively, to take 
                additional steps with respect to the national emergency 
                declared in Executive Order 14024.

                Specified harmful foreign activities of the Government 
                of the Russian Federation--in particular, efforts to 
                undermine the conduct of free and fair democratic 
                elections and democratic institutions in the United 
                States and its allies and partners; to engage in and 
                facilitate malicious cyber-enabled activities against 
                the United States and its allies and partners; to 
                foster and use transnational corruption to influence 
                foreign governments; to pursue extraterritorial 
                activities targeting dissidents or journalists; to 
                undermine security in countries and regions important 
                to United States national security; and to violate 
                well-established principles of international law, 
                including respect for the territorial integrity of 
                states--continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary 
                threat to the national security, foreign policy, and 
                economy of the United States. For this reason, the 
                national emergency declared in Executive Order 14024, 
                which was expanded in scope by Executive Order 14066, 
                and with respect to which additional steps were taken 
                in Executive Orders 14039, 14068, and 14071, must 
                continue in effect beyond April 15, 2023.

                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 14024.
