Executive Order -- Blocking Property of Certain Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine
EXECUTIVE ORDER
- - - - - - -
BLOCKING PROPERTY OF CERTAIN PERSONS CONTRIBUTING TO THE SITUATION IN UKRAINE
By the authority vested in me as President 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.)
(NEA), section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (8
U.S.C. 1182(f)), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code,
I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of
America, find that the actions and policies of persons -- including
persons who have asserted governmental authority in the Crimean region
without the authorization of the Government of Ukraine -- that undermine
democratic processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace,
security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and
contribute to the misappropriation of its assets, constitute an unusual
and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of
the United States,
and I hereby declare a national emergency to deal
with that threat.
I hereby order:
Section 1. (a) All property and interests in
property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within the
United States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or
control of any United States person (including any foreign branch) of
the following persons are blocked and may not be transferred, paid,
exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in:
any person determined by the
Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of
State:
(i) to be responsible for or complicit in, or to have engaged in, directly or indirectly, any of the following:
(A) actions or policies that undermine democratic processes or institutions in Ukraine;
(B) actions or policies that threaten the peace, security, stability, sovereignty, or territorial integrity of Ukraine; or
(C) misappropriation of state assets of Ukraine or of an economically significant entity in Ukraine;
(ii) to have asserted governmental authority
over any part or region of Ukraine without the authorization of the
Government of Ukraine;
(iii) to be a leader of an entity that has, or
whose members have, engaged in any activity described in subsection
(a)(i) or (a)(ii) of this section or of an entity whose property and
interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order;
(iv) to have materially assisted, sponsored, or
provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or
services to or in support of, any activity described in subsection
(a)(i) or (a)(ii) of this section or any person whose property and
interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order; or
(v) to be owned or controlled by, or to have
acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly,
any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant
to this order.
(b) The prohibitions in subsection (a) of this section
apply except to the extent provided by statutes, or in regulations,
orders, directives, or licenses that may be issued pursuant to this
order, and notwithstanding any contract entered into or any license or
permit granted prior to the effective date of this order.
Sec. 2. I hereby find that the unrestricted
immigrant and nonimmigrant entry into the United States of aliens
determined to meet one or more of the criteria in subsection 1(a) of
this order would be detrimental to the interests of the United States,
and I hereby suspend entry into the United States, as immigrants or
nonimmigrants, of such persons. Such persons shall be treated as persons
covered by section 1 of Proclamation 8693 of July 24, 2011 (Suspension
of Entry of Aliens Subject to United Nations Security Council Travel
Bans and International Emergency Economic Powers Act Sanctions).
Sec. 3. I hereby determine that the making of
donations of the type of articles specified in section 203(b)(2) of
IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by, to, or for the benefit of any person
whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to section
1 of this order would seriously impair my ability to deal with the
national emergency declared in this order, and I hereby prohibit such
donations as provided by section 1 of this order.
Sec. 4. The prohibitions in section 1 of this order include but are not limited to:
(a) the making of any contribution or provision of funds,
goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of any person whose
property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order;
and
(b) the receipt of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such person.
Sec. 5. (a) Any transaction that evades or avoids,
has the purpose of evading or avoiding, causes a violation of, or
attempts to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this order is
prohibited.
(b) Any conspiracy formed to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this order is prohibited.
Sec. 6. For the purposes of this order:
(a) the term "person" means an individual or entity;
(b) the term "entity" means a partnership, association,
trust, joint venture, corporation, group, subgroup, or other
organization; and
(c) the term "United States person" means any United
States citizen, permanent resident alien, entity organized under the
laws of the United States or any jurisdiction within the United States
(including foreign branches), or any person in the United States.
Sec. 7. For those persons whose property and
interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order who might have a
constitutional presence in the United States, I find that because of
the ability to transfer funds or other assets instantaneously, prior
notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this order
would render those measures ineffectual. I therefore determine that for
these measures to be effective in addressing the national emergency
declared in this order, there need be no prior notice of a listing or
determination made pursuant to section 1 of this order.
Sec. 8. The Secretary of the Treasury, in
consultation with the Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to take
such actions, including the promulgation of rules and regulations, and
to employ all powers granted to the President by IEEPA, as may be
necessary to carry out the purposes of this order. The Secretary of the
Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other officers and
agencies of the United States Government consistent with applicable law.
All agencies of the United States Government are hereby directed to
take all appropriate measures within their authority to carry out the
provisions of this order.
Sec. 9. The Secretary of the Treasury, in
consultation with the Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to submit
the recurring and final reports to the Congress on the national
emergency declared in this order, consistent with section 401(c) of the
NEA (50 U.S.C. 1641(c)) and section 204(c) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C.
1703(c)).
Sec. 10. This order is not intended to, and does
not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable
at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its
departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents,
or any other person.
