Notice of June 21, 2002
Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to the Western Balkans
On June 26, 2001, by Executive Order 13219, I declared a
national emergency with respect to the Western Balkans
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 and foreign
policy of the United States constituted by the actions of
persons engaged in, or assisting, sponsoring, or supporting,
(i) extremist violence in the former Yugoslav Republic of
Macedonia, and elsewhere in the Western Balkans region, or
(ii) acts obstructing implementation of the Dayton Accords in
Bosnia or United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 of
June 10, 1999, in Kosovo. Because the actions of these
persons, which threaten the peace and international
stabilization efforts in the Western Balkans, continue to pose
an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security
and foreign policy of the United States, the national
emergency declared on June 26, 2001, and the measures adopted
on that date to deal with that emergency must continue in
effect beyond June 26, 2002. 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
with respect to the Western Balkans.
This Notice shall be published in the Federal
eister and transmitted to the Congress.
