Sweden to Revoke Fraudulently Obtained Citizenship
In response to rising gang violence, Sweden is considering a constitutional amendment to allow for the revocation of citizenship from individuals posing a threat to national security. This change, supported by the governing parties and the Sweden Democrats, would apply to those who obtained citizenship fraudulently or committed crimes falling under international criminal court jurisdiction. Opposition parties express concerns about the legal complexities and potential for abuse. Further proposed reforms include stricter citizenship application requirements, increasing the residency period to eight years and adding language and societal tests.
