Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Significant Narcotics Traffickers Centered in Colombia

On October 16, 2025, President Donald Trump issued a notice to extend the national emergency concerning significant narcotics traffickers centered in Colombia. This emergency, initially declared in 1995 by Executive Order 12978, addresses the ongoing threat these traffickers pose to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States. The continuation is deemed necessary due to the persistent violence, corruption, and harm caused by these activities both domestically and internationally. The extension will keep the national emergency in effect for an additional year beyond October 21, 2025. This notice is to be published in the Federal Register and sent to Congress.

Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to the Actions of the Government of Syria

On May 7, 2025, President Donald Trump issued a notice to continue the national emergency regarding the actions of the Government of Syria for an additional year. This emergency was originally declared in Executive Order 13338 in 2004 and has been expanded through several subsequent executive orders. The continuation is due to Syria's ongoing support of terrorism, pursuit of weapons of mass destruction, and inadequate control over chemical weapons and terrorist organizations, which pose significant threats to U.S. national security, foreign policy, and economic interests. The notice indicates that the U.S. will assess Syria's policies and actions to decide on the future status of this national emergency.
