Nobel-Winning Physicist Stripped of Dutch Citizenship
Authorities cite dual loyalty concerns in rare legal move
A Nobel Prize-winning physicist has been stripped of Dutch citizenship in a controversial decision that underscores rising scrutiny over dual nationality.
The government cited legal grounds related to dual loyalty or national security concerns, making the rare move despite the scientist's global stature and contributions to research.
Critics warn the case could discourage international talent from choosing the Netherlands, while officials defended the decision as consistent with existing law.
