Romanians in Spain to get dual citizenship by the end of the year, Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu
Over one million Romanian citizens living in Spain will be able to get dual citizenship by the end of this year, announced the Prime Minister of Romania, Marcel Ciolacu, after discussions with his counterpart in Madrid, Pedro Sánchez. The head of the Romanian executive also said that Romania has Spain's support for obtaining a representative portfolio in the future European Commission, Radio România News writes.
The agenda for the implementation of the agreement on dual citizenship for Romanians residing in Spain was the main topic of discussion. The Romanian Prime Minister assured that the measure will come into force by the end of the year.
If this happens, Romania will become the third European state, after France and Portugal, to conclude an agreement with Spain for the dual citizenship of its residents.
"The agreement is currently with the Minister of Justice in Spain. By the end of the year we will no longer have visas for the United States, we will have dual citizenship in Spain and, from my point of view, we will more than likely enter Schengen by land", declared the Romanian Prime Minister, Marcel Ciolacu.
