🇬🇧 English

On March 24, 2026, the President issued a notice continuing for one additional year the national emergency first declared on April 15, 2021 by Executive Order 14024. The emergency addresses the unusual and extraordinary threat posed by the Russian government's efforts to undermine democratic elections and institutions in the United States and its allies, conduct malicious cyber activities, use transnational corruption to influence governments, target dissidents and journalists extraterritorially, undermine security in strategically important regions, and violate principles of international law including territorial integrity. The scope was previously expanded by Executive Order 14066 and supplemented by six subsequent executive orders issued between 2021 and 2026. The national emergency is extended beyond its April 15, 2026 expiration date until April 15, 2027, pursuant to section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act.
