On August 2, 1990, the President issued Executive Order 12722, “Blocking Iraqi Government Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Iraq.” On August 9, 1990, the President issued Executive Order 12724, “Blocking Iraqi Government Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Iraq.” On July 29, 2004, the President issued E.O. 13350, “Termination of Emergency Declared in Executive Order 12722 With Respect to Iraq and Modification of Executive Order 13290, Executive Order 13303, and Executive Order 13315,” which included an annex listing, in part, persons previously designated pursuant to E.O. 12722 or E.O. 12724, or the Iraqi Sanctions Regulations, Title 31, Code of Federal Regulations, who were also determined to be subject to Executive Order 13315 (“E.O. 13315”) and E.O. 13350. Through the cancellation of E.O.s 12722 and 12724 in E.O. 13350 persons were effectually delisted from the SDN List pursuant to E.O.s 12722 and 12724 and simultaneously re-listed on the SDN List pursuant to E.O. 13350. On December 23, 2020, OFAC determined that circumstances no longer warrant the inclusion of the following persons on the SDN List under this authority.
