Threat...

Dual citizenship is a tricky subject in Austria since it is largely illegal. But its Turkish population has reportedly been registering in both their country of homeland and their new adopted country.

The country’s politicians are now reacting to the Turkish referendum and the fact that over 73% of Austria-based voters supported the push for constitutional change.

The result of perceptions in Austria that Turks, among the largest groups of migrants to the country,  refuse to assimilate even decades after arriving. Such fears are part of larger Europe-wide concerns that migrants represent a threat to the continent's values. 

If found to be holding dual citizenship illegally, then offenders would be stripped of their Austrian citizenship as well as incurring a €5,000 fine. Officials hope that these punishments will act as a deterrent.              Just a thought.
