What exactly are the changes, or what will they be? Even this article is using qualifiers like "open up the possibility of dual citizenship".
> Dual nationality is usually only allowed for citizens of other EU countries or Switzerland, although it is permitted for other immigrants in certain exceptional cases.
Yes, but that's the law as it's been, 1 exception is e.g. one can't renounce one's Turkish citizenship, so Turks granted a German citizenship become dual citizens. As far as I've read the changes will apply to children born with dual citizenships, not adults who want to gain the German one, AFAIK they (if they're not EU/Swiss) still have to renounce their old citizenship when able to.
Edit: OK according to this[1] the AFAIK above no longer applies now.
