Notice of November 9, 2000

Continuation of Iran Emergency

On November 14, 1979, by Executive Order 12170, the
President declared a national emergency to deal with
the threat to the national security, foreign policy,
and economy of the United States constituted by the
situation in Iran. Since that time, notices of the
continuation of this national emergency have been
transmitted annually by the President to the Congress
and published in the Federal Register. The most recent
notice appeared in the Federal Register on November 5,
1999. 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,
2000. 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 Iran
for 1 year. This notice shall be published in the
Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.

THE WHITE HOUSE,

November 9, 2000.
