Presidential Determination No. 2002-27 of August 7, 2002 Presidential Determination on Waiver of Restrictions on Assistance to Russia under the Cooperative Threat Reduction Act of 1993 and Title V of the FREEDOM Support Act Memorandum for the Secretary of State Pursuant to the authority vested in me by section 302 of the 2002 Supple- mental Appropriations Act for Further Recovery from and Response to Ter- rorist Attacks on the United States (Public Law 107-206), I hereby certify that waiving the restrictions contained in subsection (d) of 22 U.S.C. 5952 and in section 502 of the FREEDOM Support Act (Public Law 102-511) with respect to the Russian Federation is important to the national security interests of the United States. You are authorized and directed to transmit this certification to the Con- gress and to arrange for its publication in the Federal Register. GEORGE W. BUSH THE WHITE HOUSE, Washington, August 7, 2002. Notice of August 14, 2002 Continuation of Emergency Regarding Export Control Regulations On August 17, 2001, consistent with the authority provided me under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.), I issued Executive Order 13222. In that order, I declared a national emer- gency with respect to the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States in light of the expiration of the Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended (50 U.S.C. App. 2401 et seq.). Because the Export Administration Act has not been re- newed by the Congress, the national emergency declared on August 17, 2001, must continue in effect beyond August 17, 2002. Therefore, in ac- cordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency declared in Ex- ecutive Order 13222. 306
