President Signs Executive Order Authorizing Blocking Assets of Additional Persons in Syria
President Bush today signed an Executive Order blocking the property of anyone suspected in the assassination of Lebanon's former prime minister Rafiq Hariri. The Executive Order authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to block the assets of yet-to-be-identified persons who are determined to have been involved in Hariri's death or to have obstructed the work of United Nations investigators.
