Notice of November 9, 2005 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 pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706) 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. Be- cause our relations with Iran have not yet returned to normal, and the proc- ess of implementing the January 19, 1981, agreements with Iran is still un- derway, the national emergency declared on November 14, 1979, must con- tinue in effect beyond November 14, 2005. Therefore, consistent with sec- tion 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am con- tinuing for 1 year this national emergency with respect to Iran. This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress. GEORGE W. BUSH THE WHITE HOUSE, November 9, 2005. 277
