The new rules stipulate that:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    Ukrainians can own two or more citizenships<\/strong>;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    having another citizenship is not an automatic ground for losing Ukrainian citizenship<\/strong>;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    the state recognises multiple citizenship as a legal status.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    At the same time, the law establishes exceptions and limitations<\/strong>, In particular, for persons holding certain public positions or having access to state secrets.<\/p>\n

    Who is affected by the restrictions<\/h3>\n

    According to the document, special requirements may apply to:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • \n

      judges;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      law enforcement;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      military personnel;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      government officials.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      For these categories, the issue of multiple citizenship will be regulated by separate rules.<\/p>\n

      Context and meaning<\/h3>\n

      The issue of multiple citizenship has remained controversial in Ukrainian society for years. Its legalisation is considered to be an important step for:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • \n

        of the Ukrainian diaspora abroad;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        citizens who have been living in the EU, the US and other countries for a long time;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        strengthening Ukraine's ties with millions of Ukrainians outside the country.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
