In a press conference this morning, the new campaign by the South Tyrol FREEDOM on dual citizenship presented. The idea of Austria and Italy Double citizenship is in South Tyrol immediately attracted a very high approval. All German parties have spoken out clearly for it. Now, however, requires concrete steps for implementation. For months, preparing the South Tyrolean freedom from quite a number of large-scale operation on dual citizenship, which will ensure not only in South Tyrol, but all of Austria for attention. means of a citizens' initiative that is in the National Council come for treatment to the people and the politics of the issue dual citizenship to be made aware and enthusiastic.
In recent months, led the South Tyrolean freedom of political talks with representatives of all parties in the Austrian Parliament, and representatives of all parties to the Tyrolean Parliament on this issue. It was apparent that the idea of dual citizenship is fundamentally well taken, but there still some info
rmation and persuasion required.
both by politics than by the population, we repeatedly two main questions:
Would the South Tyrol in general a dual citizenship?
support the people of Austria that desire for a dual citizenship in the South Tyrol?
To answer these questions and to give more weight to the concern, the South Tyrolean Freedom starts a citizens initiative.
citizens 'initiative for dual citizenship: with a citizens' initiative, the Austrian state of at least 500 citizens from 16 Age must be signed can be submitted to the National Council a concern directly. The SOUTH TIROLR FREEDOM will therefore file such a citizens' initiative to the National Council will be asked to create the conditions that the South-Tyrolese the acquisition of Austrian citizenship, is made possible in the sense of a second citizenship.
Although the signatures include the South Tyrolean not formally, as they still are not Austrian citizens will be collected in South Tyrol, the necessary signatures in order to put a political sign to indicate their wishes . can The collection of signatures for this petition citizens are thus testifies that the South Tyrol are interested in dual citizenship and one in Austria supports this concern.
the citizens' initiative by a poster campaign, with the inscription
"For our South Tyrol, the Austrian citizenship
, as well as:
poster campaign and information brochure the same information brochure, with which people are informed about the dual citizenship issue. Through posters and the information brochure, which in be distributed and South Tyrol in Austria, is to take place the necessary attention and awareness of dual citizenship.
events all over Austria: During the next 3 months, in which signatures are gathered for the citizens initiative
, will host the South Tyrolean Freedom of information events in several cities in Austria. Particularly in North Tyrol and Vienna in the South Tyrolean Freedom has many members and supporters who are now actively involved in the collection of signatures in the organization of information sessions.
Why the double Citizenship:
The South Tyrol is an Austrian minority, which was taken against their will, the Austrian citizenship. With the restoration of Austrian citizenship could strengthen the South-Tyrolean their cultural identity while strengthening the bond to the homeland of Austria. Dual citizenship would also be the best safeguard of autonomy. So far Italy has always maintained that South Tyrol is a purely intra-Italian concern, as the South Tyrol are Italian, yes. If the South Tyrolean and Austrian nationals were now, could Austria therefore internationally much better the rights of the South Tyrolean defend.
addition to political reasons, there are also a number of practical advantages (eg in the labor market), also could also address the vexed issue of South Tyrol, the athletes achieved so far are forced to compete for Italy. With the additional possession of Austrian nationality, every athlete could decide whether he prefers to Austria, or Italy enters the race.
The Austria-Italian dual citizenship would thus present position of South Tyrol as a bridge between north and south in a united Europe . Correspond
models for dual citizenship:
One of the best models for handling dual nationality is Italy. Since 2006, all Italians who live abroad and therefore the Italian minority in other countries (eg in the areas around Istria) to acquire Italian citizenship as the ability to dual citizenship. Italy could have nothing against such an Austria-Italian dual citizenship for the South Tyrol, as it provides for them even for their own minorities. In the EU have
almost all states, except Luxembourg, Sweden and Spain, in one form or other arrangements that will allow its citizens dual citizenship.
In Austria there are already dual citizenship:
In Austria there is already such a dual citizenship. The descendants of emigrants from the former Austrian Dreizehnlinden in Brazil have to get the mid-90s, all the Austrian citizenship. The emigrants of 13 lime trees were just as the South Tyrol, or citizens of the 1st Republic, when the last time in possession of an Austrian Citizenship were. As their offspring were regarded as an Austrian, were given dual citizenship now. Exactly the same could also apply to the South Tyrol to apply.
The be adopted part of the citizens' initiative is therefore deliberately not formulated in the form of an introductory text of the law, but kept very general and rather an invitation to create the conditions to ensure that the South Tyrolese the acquisition of Austrian citizenship, in the sense of a second citizenship is possible.
remains open for the National Council the option, whether through a change to be made to the citizenship law, or just over the current law because of the principle of descent, so this was handled in Dreizehnlinden.
