                                MESSAGE

                                  from

                   THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

                              transmitting

     NOTIFICATION THAT THE NATIONAL EMERGENCY WITH RESPECT TO IRAN 
ORIGINALLY DECLARED ON NOVEMBER 14, 1979, BY EXECUTIVE ORDER 12170, IS 
 TO CONTINUE IN EFFECT BEYOND NOVEMBER 14, 2013, PURSUANT TO 50 U.S.C. 
                                1622(d)

  November 12, 2013.--Message and accompanying papers referred to the 
         Committee on Foreign Affairs and ordered to be printed
To the Congress of the United States:
    Section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 
1622(d)) provides for the automatic termination of a national 
emergency unless, within the 90-day period prior to the 
anniversary date of its declaration, the President publishes in 
the Federal Register and transmits to the Congress a notice 
stating that the emergency is to continue in effect beyond the 
anniversary date. In accordance with this provision, I have 
sent to the Federal Register for publication the enclosed 
notice stating that the national emergency with respect to Iran 
that was declared in Executive Order 12170 of November 14, 
1979, is to continue in effect beyond November 14, 2013.
    Because our relations with Iran have not yet returned to 
normal, and the process of implementing the agreements with 
Iran, dated January 19, 1981, is still under way, I have 
determined that it is necessary to continue the national 
emergency declared in Executive Order 12170 with respect to 
Iran.

                                                      Barack Obama.
    The White House, November 12, 2013.
                                 Notice

                              ----------                              

          Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect 
                                to Iran

    On November 14, 1979, by Executive Order 12170, the 
President declared a national emergency with respect to Iran 
and, pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers 
Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706), took related steps 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 
agreements with Iran, dated January 19, 1981, is still under 
way, the national emergency declared on November 14, 1979, must 
continue in effect beyond November 14, 2013. 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 Iran declared in Executive Order 
12170.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and 
transmitted to the Congress.

                                                      Barack Obama.
    The White House, November 12, 2013.
