Today, during the celebration of the Day of Unification of Ukraine, President Vladimir Zelensky announced his intention to submit to the Verkhovna Rada a bill providing for the possibility of obtaining Ukrainian citizenship for ethnic Ukrainians and their descendants from around the world. An official statement on this matter is posted on the President’s website, writes WomanEL.
According to Zelensky's proposal, the new law will allow having two or more passports, but exclusively for ethnic Ukrainians and their descendants from all over the world, with the exception of citizens of the aggressor country.

In In particular, the new law will allow foreigners who are ethnic Ukrainians, as well as volunteers who are currently fighting for the independence of Ukraine, to obtain Ukrainian citizenship. The procedure for acquiring citizenship will be open to everyone who considers themselves part of the large Ukrainian diaspora or supports Ukrainian interests in the world.
This document will open our citizenship to all ethnic Ukrainians and their descendants from different countries of the world who carry Ukrainian heritage in their souls,
said the president.
Note that the idea of introducing multiple citizenship in Ukraine was expressed by the president earlier. According to him, this decision will bring Ukrainians closer together around their roots and will contribute to national unity. The bill also provides for liability for concealing the presence of other passports and prevents the use of citizenship of other states to interfere in Ukrainian affairs.
