EXECUTIVE ORDER

14022

• -

TERMINATION OF EMERGENCY WITH RESPECT TO THE INTERNATIONAL

CRIMINAL COURT

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.), 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, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States of

America, find that, although the United States continues to

object to the International Criminal Court's (ICC) assertions of

jurisdiction over personnel of such non-States Parties as the

United States and its allies absent their consent or referral by

the United Nations Security Council and will vigorously protect

current and former United States personnel from any attempts to

exercise such jurisdiction, the threat and imposition of

financial sanctions against the Court, its personnel, and those

who assist it are not an effective or appropriate strategy for

addressing the United States' concerns with the ICC.

Accordingly, I hereby terminate the national emergency

declared in Executive Order 13928 of June 11, 2020 (Blocking

Property of Certain Persons Associated With the International

Criminal Court), and revoke that order, and further order:

Section 1. In light of the revocation of Executive Order

13928, the suspension of entry as immigrants and nonimmigrants

of individuals meeting the criteria set forth in section 1(a) of

that order will no longer be in effect as of the date of this

order and such individuals will no longer be treated as persons

covered by Presidential Proclamation 8693 of July 24, 2011

 

2

(Suspension of Entry of Aliens Subject to United Nations

Security Council Travel Bans and International Emergency

Economic Powers Act Sanctions).

Sec. 2. Pursuant to section 202(a) of the NEA (50 U.S.C.

1622(a)), termination of the national emergency declared in

Executive Order 13928 shall not affect any action taken or

proceeding pending not finally concluded or determined as of the

date of this order, any action or proceeding based on any act

committed prior to the date of this order, or any rights or

duties that matured or penalties that were incurred prior to the

date of this order.

Sec. 3. (a) Nothing in this order shall be construed to

impair or otherwise affect:

(i) the authority granted by law to an executive

department or agency, or the head thereof; or

(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of

Management and Budget relating to budgetary,

administrative, or legislative proposals.

(b) This order shall be implemented consistent with

applicable law and subject to the availability of

appropriations.

(c) 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.
