    On July 25, 2008, the President issued a new Executive Order with 
respect to Zimbabwe pursuant to, inter alia, the International 
Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-06). In the Order, the 
President took additional steps with respect to the national emergency 
declared in Executive Order 13288 of March 7, 2003, and relied upon for 
additional steps taken in Executive Order 13391 of November 22, 2005, 
in order to address the continued political repression and the 
undermining of democratic processes and institutions in Zimbabwe.
    Section 1 of the Order blocks, with certain exceptions, all 
property, and interests in property, that are in, or hereafter come 
within, the United States or the possession or control of United States 
persons for persons determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in 
consultation with the Secretary of State, to satisfy any of the 
criteria set forth in subparagraphs (a)(i) through (a)(vii) of Section 
1. On July 25, 2008, the Director of OFAC designated, pursuant to one 
or more of the criteria set forth in subparagraphs (a)(i) through
