      This only means new applications will be rejected/frozen, not that Russians already being dual citizens are now prone to lose their Czech citizenship, right?

      As a Czech person who knows a bunch of long-term Russian residents and Russian-Czech citizens with Russian-only family members: This law is a piece of populist bullshit that will do nothing to stop actual Russian agents, of which there are many (a lot of them straight up Czechs, born and raised, lol), but will make life complicated for a lot of every day honest people who just didn’t get around to getting Czech citizenship in time.

      If the Czech government wanted to fight Russian influence, there are very obvious things they could be doing, like fighting Russian disinformation, or closing down Russian embassy (half of which lies on illegally annexed land after the ’68 invasion to this day lol…). But I guess that would mean pissing off some powerful people so lets just bully the everyday man…

      No one should be forced to become Czech citizen it’s inhumane and unjust

      Banning multiple citizenship just makes life hard for normal people. Spies and agents can come from anywhere and have whatever nationality, Russia doesn’t care.

      If you want examples: in Romania we have the now famous Calin Georgescu who was funded by the Russians, only has Romanian citizenship. Again in Romania, a colombian tried to plant a bomb, backed by Russia. It doesn’t freaking matter.

      Even if we’re talking about general populations: Russia doesn’t care about citizenship. If Putin wants to invade lr whatever else, they will say that the Russian ethnicity people have to be saved and they’ve been oppressed by having to give up their Russian citizenship.

      As someone from Bosnia (ethnic bosniak), I notice parallels between how the EU is currently treating Russians and how they treated Serbians in the 1990s. Based on history, I believe that 10-20 years after this war ends (which I hope happens soon), the EU will likely normalize relations with Russia, just as they did with Serbia. Given Russia’s greater global significance, this seems even more probable. I question the purpose of creating difficulties for Russian citizens, as it appears to be driven mainly by populism.

      A Russian friend of mine was waiting for the day she could get her Czech citizenship so she could burn her Russian passport. So for those who love democracy, it’s not a problem. For those who love Russia, well fuck them
