Sweden plans to remove citizenship from people seen as threat to state. “….Sweden’s political parties have agreed that dual citizens who commit crimes that threaten national security should lose their citizenship” – Could it be any other way?

But it stopped short of proposals by the minority government for gangsters to have their citizenship revoked.

Justice Minister Gunnar Strommer said Sweden was dealing with “violent extremism, state actors acting in a hostile manner towards Sweden, as well as systemic organised crime”.

Under Sweden’s constitution, revoking citizenship is currently not allowed and a vote will take place next year in parliament on changing the laws.
