Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to UNITA

          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 by the President on September 26, 
          1993, by Executive Order 12865, to deal with the unusual and 
          extraordinary threat to the foreign policy of the United 
          States constituted by the actions and policies of the National 
          Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA). The order 
          prohibits the sale or supply by United States persons or from 
          the United States, or using U.S. registered vessels or 
          aircraft, of arms, related materiel of all types, petroleum, 
          and petroleum products to the territory of Angola, other than 
          through designated points of entry. The order also prohibits 
          the sale or supply of such commodities to UNITA.
          The President took additional measures with respect to the 
          national emergency declared in Executive Order 12865 by 
          issuing Executive Orders 13069 and 13098 on December 12, 1997, 
          and August 18, 1998, respectively. Those orders close all 
          UNITA offices in the United States, block all property and 
          interests in property of UNITA and designated UNITA officials 
          and adult members of their immediate families, prohibit the 
          importation of certain diamonds exported from Angola, and 
          impose additional sanctions with respect to the provision of 
          mining and transportation equipment and services.
          Because of our continuing international obligations and 
          because of the prejudicial effect that discontinuation of the 
          sanctions would have on prospects for peace in Angola, the 
          national emergency declared on September 26, 1993, and the 
          measures adopted pursuant thereto to deal with that emergency, 
          must continue in effect beyond September 26, 2002. Therefore, 
          I am continuing the national emergency with respect to UNITA.
          This notice shall be published in the Federal 
          eister and transmitted to the Congress.
