Background On June 11, 2020, the President, invoking the authority of, inter alia, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act 50 U.S.C. 17011706
IEEPA, issued Executive Order E.O.
13928 85 FR 36139, June 15, 2020, Blocking Property of Certain Persons Associated With the International Criminal Court. In E.O. 13928, the President found that the International Criminal Courts ICC assertions of jurisdiction over personnel of the United States and certain of its allies threatened to subject current and former United States Government and allied officials to harassment, abuse, and possible arrest, and that these actions on the part of the ICC, in turn, threatened to infringe upon the sovereignty of the United States. The President therefore determined that any attempt by the ICC

to investigate, arrest, detain, or prosecute any United States personnel without the consent of the United States, or of personnel of countries that are United States allies and who are not parties to the Rome Statute or have not otherwise consented to ICC jurisdiction, constituted an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States and declared a national emergency to deal with that threat.
On October 1, 2020, OFAC issued the International Criminal Court-Related Sanctions Regulations, 31 CFR part 520
85 FR 61816, October 1, 2020 the Regulations, as a final rule to implement E.O. 13928. The Regulations were issued in abbreviated form for the purpose of providing immediate guidance to the public.
On April 1, 2021, the President issued E.O. 14022, Termination of Emergency With Respect to the International Criminal Court 86 FR 17895, April 7, 2021. In E.O. 14022, the President found that, although the United States continues to object to the ICCs 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, the threat and imposition of financial sanctions against the ICC, its personnel, and those who assist it are not an effective or appropriate strategy for addressing the United States concerns with the ICC.
Accordingly, the President terminated the national emergency declared in E.O.
13928 and revoked that order.
As a result, OFAC is removing the Regulations from the Code of Federal Regulations. Pursuant to section 202a of the National Emergencies Act 50
U.S.C. 1622a and section 2 of E.O.
14022, termination of the national emergency declared in E.O. 13928 shall not affect any action taken or proceeding pending not finally concluded or determined as of April 1, 2021 the date of E.O. 14022, any action or proceeding based on any act committed prior to the date of E.O.
14022, or any rights or duties that matured or penalties that were incurred prior to the date of E.O. 14022.
Public Participation Because the Regulations involve a foreign affairs function, the provisions of E.O. 12866 of September 30, 1993, Regulatory Planning and Review 58
FR 51735, October 4, 1993, and the Administrative Procedure Act 5 U.S.C.
553 requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, opportunity for public participation, and delay in effective date are inapplicable. Because no notice of

proposed rulemaking is required for this rule, the Regulatory Flexibility Act 5
U.S.C. 601612 does not apply.
Paperwork Reduction Act The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because this rule does not impose information collection requirements that would require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
