Notice on Continuation of Emergency With Respect to the Federal Republic 
of Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro)

May 25, 1994

    On May 30, 1992, by Executive Order No. 12808, President Bush 
declared a national emergency to deal with the unusual and extraordinary 
threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the 
United States constituted by the actions and policies of the Governments 
of Serbia and Montenegro, blocking all property and interests in 
property of those Governments. The President took additional measures to 
prohibit trade and other transactions with the Federal Republic of 
Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro) by Executive Orders Nos. 12810, 
12831, and 12846, issued on June 5, 1992, January 15, 1993, and April 
25, 1993, respectively. Because the Government of the Federal Republic 
of Yugoslavia (Serbia and Montenegro) has continued its actions and 
policies in support of groups seizing and attempting to seize territory 
in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina by force and violence, the national 
emergency declared on May 30, 1992, and the measures adopted pursuant 
thereto to deal with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond May 
30, 1994. 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 the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (Serbia and 
Montenegro).
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.
                                            William J. Clinton
The White House,
May 25, 1994.
