Background
On June 26, 2001, the President, invoking the authority of, inter
alia, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-
1706) (``IEEPA''), issued Executive Order 13219 (66 Fed.Reg. 34777,
June 29, 2001) (``E.O. 13219''). In E.O. 13219, the President declared
a national emergency with respect to the actions of persons engaged in,
or assisting, sponsoring, or supporting: (i) Extremist violence in the
former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, southern Serbia, the Federal
Republic of Yugoslavia, and elsewhere in the Western Balkans region, or
(ii) acts obstructing implementation of the Dayton Accords in Bosnia or
United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 in Kosovo.
On May 28, 2003, the President issued Executive Order 13304 (68 FR

emergencies declared in Executive Order 12808 of May 20, 1992, and
Executive Order 13088 of June 9, 1998, with respect to the former
Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, revoking those and related
executive orders, and taking additional steps with regard to the
national emergency declared in E.O. 13219. Section 1 of E.O. 13219, as
amended by E.O. 13304, blocks, with certain exceptions, all property
and interests in property that are in the United States, or that
hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter come
within the possession or control of United States persons, of: (i)
Persons listed in the Annex to E.O. 13304 and (ii) persons designated
by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of
State, because they are determined: (A) To be under open indictment by
the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, unless
circumstances warrant otherwise, or (B) to have committed, or to pose a
significant risk of committing, acts of violence that have the purpose
or effect of threatening the peace in or diminishing the stability or
security of any area or state in the Western Balkans region,
undermining the authority, efforts, or objectives of international
organizations or entities present in the region, or endangering the
safety of persons participating in or providing support to the
activities of those international organizations or entities; or (C) to
have actively obstructed, or pose a significant risk of actively
obstructing, the Ohrid Framework Agreement of 2001 relating to
Macedonia, United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 relating to
Kosovo, or the Dayton Accords or the Conclusions of the Peace
Implementation Conference held in London on December 8-9, 1995,
including the decisions or conclusions of the High Representative, the
Peace Implementation Council or its Steering Board, relating to Bosnia
and Herzegovina; or (D) to have materially assisted in, sponsored, or
provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or
services in support of, such acts of violence or obstructionism or any
person listed in or designated pursuant to this order; or (E) to be
owned or controlled by, or acting or purporting to act directly or
indirectly for or on behalf of, any of the foregoing persons.
On June 22, 2010, the Director of OFAC removed from the SDN List
