“Centre-left opposition parties say that revoking gang criminals’ citizenship would be a step too far, as deciding how to define the law would be difficult. Two opposition parties, the Left and the Greens, said they could not back removing citizenship at all.”
“The government points to neighbouring Denmark, where citizenship can already be removed because of an act that is “seriously prejudicial to the vital interests of the state”. The law was recently extended to include some forms of serious gang crime.”
This is ridiculous. Getting received by a foreign country to then commit destabilising crimes should 100% warrant a citizenship removal.
Man flying off a cliff seeks a committee to propose that he consider reducing the speed of his car on the road, five minutes before he’s going to hit the ground.
> People with dual nationality who received citizenship by providing false information, bribery or threats, as well as people convicted of crimes like espionage or treason could be stripped of their Swedish passports if the law is passed.
Oh, so it’s nothing, just updating the law to what the entire rest of the world already does. Wild that currently if you scam your way into a Swedish passport they can’t do anything about it. Anyways, wake me up when they add “violent crime” to the list.
