Dual citizenship for Lithuanians?

Lithuania's president Valdas Adamkus has presented a draft law to parliament for renegotiation. The law would allow children born to Lithuanians living abroad to hold two passports. The daily Lietuvos Rytas argues that the law would be pointless: "Will the children of emigrants save Lithuania? After all, a Lithuanian passport is just a piece of paper issued by the authorities. Can it really strengthen the bond between people with Lithuanian roots and their country? ... It is time we understood that citizenship is not the same as nationality. Lithuania is not created by emigrants, no matter how much money they send home, but by the people who live in Lithuania. And among these are Russians, Poles and in future perhaps Chinese and Turks as well. There is nothing wrong with dual citizenship in the 21st century, but we should not fool ourselves into believing it can save the nation."
