What changed

This document formally continues the national emergency declared concerning the Russian Federation's harmful foreign activities. The notice, issued by the Executive Office of the President, extends the scope of sanctions and other measures previously implemented under this emergency declaration. Specific details regarding the exact nature of the "specified harmful foreign activities" and the precise measures being continued are referenced from prior executive orders and regulations.

Entities involved in international trade or financial transactions with Russia should review existing sanctions lists and compliance obligations. This continuation implies that existing restrictions remain in force and may be subject to further enforcement actions. Compliance officers should ensure their due diligence processes are up-to-date to avoid violations, as the national emergency declaration provides the legal basis for ongoing and potentially expanded sanctions.

Review existing sanctions related to the Russian Federation.
Ensure compliance with all applicable sanctions programs and restrictions.
Update due diligence procedures for transactions involving Russian entities.

Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Specified Harmful Foreign Activities of the Government of the Russian Federation

On April 15, 2021, by Executive Order 14024, the President declared a national emergency pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States constituted by specified harmful foreign activities of the Government of the Russian Federation. On March 8, 2022, the President issued Executive Order 14066 to expand the scope of the national emergency declared in Executive Order 14024. On August 20, 2021, March 11, 2022, April 6, 2022, December 22, 2023, August 6, 2025, and February 6, 2026, the President issued Executive Orders 14039, 14068, 14071, 14114, 14329, and 14384, respectively, to take additional steps with respect to the national emergency declared in Executive Order 14024.

Specified harmful foreign activities of the Government of the Russian Federation—in particular, efforts to undermine the conduct of free and fair democratic elections and democratic institutions in the United States and its allies and partners; to engage in and facilitate malicious cyber-enabled activities against the United States and its allies and partners; to foster and use transnational corruption to influence foreign governments; to pursue extraterritorial activities targeting dissidents or journalists; to undermine security in countries and regions important to United States national security; and to violate well-established principles of international law, including respect for the territorial integrity of states—continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. For this reason, the national emergency declared in Executive Order 14024, which was expanded in scope in Executive Order 14066, and with respect to which additional steps were taken in Executive Orders 14039, 14068, 14071, 14114, 14329, and 14384, must continue in effect beyond April 15, 2026.

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 declared in Executive Order 14024.
