by the Constitution and the laws of the 

United States of America, including the 

International Emergency Economic 

Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) 

(IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act 

(50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), the Arms

of November 14, 1994, as amended, the 

U.S. Government determined on 

December 21, 2012 that the following 

Chinese and Iranian foreign persons 

have engaged in proliferation activities 

that warrant the imposition of measures

suspending all licenses and other 

approvals for: (a) Exports and other 

transfers of defense articles and defense

persons.
