With the expiration of EAA in 1994, the President declared a national emergency and exercised authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act P.L. 95 223 50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq. to continue the EAA exportcontrol regulations then in effect by issuing Executive Order 12924 on August 19, 1994.

ControlArms is a campaign jointly run by Amnesty International , IANSA and Oxfam International . The campaign focuses on the international trade in arms, arguing that the lack of controls on the arms trade is fuelling armed conflict , poverty and human rights abuses worldwide. The campaign seeks to build support among governments for an Arms Trade Treaty , a legal instrument that would prohibit arms from being exported to destinations where they are likely to be used to commit grave human rights violations. Such a treaty would require countries to comply with international human rights and International Humanitarian Law humanitarian law standards when authorizing weapons transfers. ref cite web url http www.iansa.org controlarms index.htm title The ControlArms Campaign author IANSA date 2006 09 04 ref After three years effort by campaigners all around the world, the ControlArms Million Faces petition has now reached its target of a million photographs.
