Passport as weapons: why dual citizenship with neighbors is dangerous for Ukraine

Blogger Vladislav Smirnov is categorically against multiple citizenship, which, in his opinion, undermines national identity. But if you allow it, with a condition for a categorical prohibition for Ukrainians citizenship of neighboring countries - to prevent attempts to claim to our territory, I personally categorically against multiple citizenship in principle. In today's war, the identity, loyalty and state subjectivity should be unambiguous, without "or" or ".

But if someone is looking for so -called "compromises", we must at least draw a red line that cannot be broken in any circumstances. It is an unconditional ban on dual citizenship with neighboring states-Poland, Hungary, Romania, Russia. It's not just a political step - it's a security need. Because for these countries, multiple citizenship is not about human rights, but about the rights to the territory.

They have repeatedly used "protection of their citizens" as a tool of influence or even a reason for occupation: passports are a new form of weapons. If we do not close this gate, sooner or later they will be used by the one who wants to "come to defend our". And without any shot will have an internal bridgehead.
