The four Moroccans and the Turk who lost their French nationality after being convicted of terrorism: this is how France revokes the citizenship of foreign nationals

Alberto Núñez Feijóo, president of the People's Party (PP) in Spain, announced that his party is preparing an organic law proposal to strip naturalized foreign citizens of their Spanish nationality if they commit serious crimes. This proposed measure seeks to replicate existing models in other major European nations, specifically Germany, France, and the United Kingdom, which already withdraw citizenship from criminals.

The debate has drawn attention to France's specific implementation of such measures, highlighting cases where individuals—including four Moroccans and one Turk—lost their French nationality following terrorism convictions, thereby illustrating the mechanisms by which France revokes citizenship from naturalized foreigners.
