Notice--Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Iran

November 9, 2005

    On November 14, 1979, by Executive Order 12170, the President 
declared a national emergency with respect to Iran pursuant to the 
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706) to 
deal with the unusual and extraordinary

threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the 
United States constituted by the situation in Iran. Because our 
relations with Iran have not yet returned to normal, and the process of 
implementing the January 19, 1981, agreements with Iran is still 
underway, the national emergency declared on November 14, 1979, must 
continue in effect beyond November 14, 2005. Therefore, consistent with 
section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am 
continuing for 1 year this national emergency with respect to Iran.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.
