Tit for Tat; Immigration Style

Okay so Hungary decided that it would allow dual citizenship for Hungarians living overseas. Slovakia, angry about this, decided that if any of its citizens should apply for Hungarian citizenship, it would strip them of Slovakian citizenship. There is a large ethnic Hungarian nationality living in Slovakia and Hungary decided that it would grant citizenship to individuals who have Hungarian ancestry and who can speak the language and live abroad. Robert Fisco, Slovakian leader, says Hungary's move is "a security threat." So far, Slovakia is the only country against Hungary's decision...There's always one.
