Update to Response to Information Request ZZZ17953.E of 25 July 1994 on whether Russia and Israel have signed a bilateral agreement on dual citizenship [RUS21570.E]

For information on the above-mentioned subject current to 26 April 1995, please consult the fourth paragraph of the second page of Response to Information Request ISR21640.E of 18 August 1995.

The information contained in that Response is corroborated by information on the last page of the Federal News Service attachment of 6 July 1995. In that attachment, the Israeli deputy foreign minister stated in Moscow, when asked whether Israel would be ready to sign an accord on dual citizenship with Russia (and about the possibility of a new Russian ambassador in Israel):

No, these two issues were not mentioned in our talk, there was nothing mentioned about another new ambassador and there was nothing mentioned about the dual citizenship. Theoretically, philosophically, we have nothing against dual citizenship, we have it with many other countries, and I don't know... I didn't have anything against that sort of thing...

This Response was prepared after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the DIRB within time constraints. This Response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum.
