On May 11, 2015, the Federal Register published the President’s Notice of May 8, 2015—Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to the Central African Republic which extends for an additional year the national emergency originally declared in Executive Order (E.O.) 13667 on May 12, 2015 to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States constituted by the situation in and in relation to the Central African Republic, which has been marked by a breakdown of law and order, intersectarian tension, widespread violence and atrocities, and the pervasive, often forced recruitment and use of child soldiers, and that threatens the peace, security, or stability of the Central African Republic and neighboring states. Because the situation in and in relation to the Central African Republic continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States, the President is continuing the national emergency for an additional year.
