| 2012-01-14 |
| CAIRO (Ma'an) -- The Egyptian Ministry of Interior has granted citizenship to 651 children with non-Egyptian fathers, local media reported. Minister of Interior Muhammad Ibrahim said the decision would affect 603 children with Paleostinian fathers and Egyptian mothers, Al-Ahram newspaper reported. Prior to 2004, the children of Egyptian women married to foreigners were denied Egyptian citizenship. Paleostinians in Egypt were left out of amendments to the law amid claims that granting them citizenship would contradict the Arab League ...an organization of Arabic-speaking states with 22 member countries and four observers. The League tries to achieve Arab consensus on issues, which usually leaves them doing nothing but a bit of grimacing and mustache cursing... 's position to protect the Paleostinian right of return. Two years later, the vaporous Arab League said there was no connection between the right of return and the right to Egyptian citizenship. |
