Who is the US to decide for all other countries who can and cannot be a citizen of your country?

[@hendrixansel9750]

the bo$$ of the world.

[@gregfed]

I don't like the accepted discrimination of Russians around the world. I was raised to treat everyone equally and all of a sudden everyone is okay with treating Russians as less than human in many settings.

[@malthus101]

are you really a Fed?

[@arjunhar4866]

Not everyone bro, just some western nations, most of population which includes India, china, middle east, sotheast asian countries so more than 4b people support russians and treat them with upmost respect it's just some western hypocrites who discriminates

[@TheMasterInDisguise]

I don't understand the extreme Russia hate either, and I was living in Ukraine shortly before the conflict, and I also had my businesses bankrupted by the war. I understand that it is a geopolitical conflict between great powers. I don't take it personally. In conflicts with other nations, the US has made it clear that the dispute is with the government and not the people of the country. I don't understand why it is different for Russians on a policy level. What I find even more disgusting is the treatment of ethnic Russians and Russian culture by ordinary citizens, businesses, and organizations in Western countries. They voluntarily choose to discriminate against Russians and feel fully justified doing so over the politics of a conflict they don't understand.

[@FAngus-ly8lk]

Because Russians are a$$holes, and Russia is led by a vile dictatorship that kills and poisons its opponents and murders any journalist brave enough to ask questions. It's a failing country in severe demographic decline (falling population, chronically low birth rate, the lowest life expectancy in the industrialized world) and seeks to compensate for its internal weakness and economic problems through belligerence, alliances with foreign neofascists, and the appalling war in Ukraine. Putin has turned out to be a caricature of Stalin (murderous despotism combined with yachts, palaces and stolen $$billions). His loyal oligarchs are also crooks and thieves. Is there any conceivable reason to trust Russia or its government?

[@mvp019]

I love how the USA believes in national sovereignty unless those countries engage in policies that they don't like.

[@OffshoreCitizen]

US government may be the biggest hypocrites on the planet

[@infiad1275]

@@OffshoreCitizen May be? Yup!!

[@unovox]

You were wrong to believe that the U.S. believes in national sovereignty.

[@dangermouse8466]

The US are the biggest warmongers for sure. Shame!

[@TheMasterInDisguise]

I like how the US believes in personal liberty until it becomes inconvenient for the Washington DC elites. I was told if you don't love it, leave it. I took the advice and moved to Ukraine. They would not leave me alone. I had to report my bank accounts every year and provide additional information to the banks so they could share my private financial information with the US government. I had to let the US government know about all my business interests and pay specialized accountants a lot of money to file tax returns every year. It was like living with a gun to my head because if I didn't do it, they would put heavy fines on me with the possibility of criminal charges. At any time, my passport could be revoked at the behest of a government agent without notice. I was visiting the US when the war broke out. I held a lot of Russian assets with my US based broker. I invested mainly in Russian ADRs as they had good returns. Due to sanctions, my assets at the broker were frozen. My bank accounts were with the Ukranian subsidiary of Sberbank, which was shut down by the Ukranian government and funds seized. I was stuck in the US, and my businesses in Ukraine went bankrupt because I didn't have access to my bank accounts. The US government then would not let my wife, a Ukranian citizen, come to the US because I didn't make enough money to be a sponsor due to my businesses going bankrupt. I only had a bit of cash flow coming in from my VA disability payment for getting injured serving in the US Army. Let this be a lesson to you all.

[@unovox]

Leave Russia alone!

[@thunderwh]

I wonder how this affects people born before 1991 when Russia was a part of the USSR. Many Russians were born in Kazakhstan or Estonia, for example, and conversely some Estonians or Latvians who are now citizens of EU were born in the Russian part of the USSR.

[@libertarianspirit]

I'm looking forward to your video about alternative programs for Russians! I had plenty of money in 2021 during last bull run, I could have easily afforded to get any carribean citizenship but I didn't. Turkey's program also probably on the way out after elections this summer. Armenia's program got huge push back from local nationalists (95% voted against on their legislative website). Statism marching this plant like it's 1930s again.

[@KangTheDigitalNomad]

There are 4 others you might have to look into right now & START THE PROCESS RIGHT NOW if you have everything ready to go.

[@MFG2738]

I remember as a child I loved USA. I loved the films, the culture, and in my teens the music, the food. I wanted to one day live there and saw it as the dream. And if you can get a green card wow Id be so happy. Now I am so happy that never happened. I am so happy to not be American. Id of been paying so much tax and risking a gun shot daily Dubai is the new dream.

[@KangTheDigitalNomad]

Unfortunately this is true. We tried to warn people of the pros and cons. People still didn't listen.

[@malthus101]

Disagree on Dubai being a dream but agree on old America.

[@mars54mars54]

and why does Grenada feel the need to bow before the US demands? What are the dynamics behind that, and is there a way for these countries to just say no and go about their business?

[@OffshoreCitizen]

It's a good question. On their own I think they are subject to potential pressure whereby they could lose existing visa free access. What countries need to do is band together

[@missionelpaso3766]

The movie Heartbreak Ridge with Clint Eastwood shows some of the dynamics between the US and Grenada.

[@hendrixansel9750]

US can sanction Russia. What does make you think, the US cannot sanction a small island ?

[@BossChronicles]

How long does it take to not be a California resident? I've lived in California my whole life recently moved overseas to ASIA I wanna form a LLC but do not want to form in California $800 annual fee looking at other cheaper states Wyoming how long do I need to be away from California not to be considered a resident ive heard if I form in another state I still need to pay tax to Cali.

[@JohnDoe-cf8jz]

I have dual Canadian/UK citizenship so this doesn't affect me, but it does smack of a typical American overreaction inline with it's "police the world" doctrine. My business partner is from Libya and we're looking where he might get a second passport, something like Malta maybe.

[@OffshoreCitizen]

Feel free to reach out in case you need any assistance with that. We can figure out what would work best for them and assist throughout the process

[@extendo7137]

So non russians who get grenada citizenship through CBI now have to wait for 3 years to apply for e2 visa?

[@RomilCPatel]

Yes. Not just wait three years but actually be domiciled in Grenada for 3 years. This rule applies to all e2 visas countries not just Grenada. So this applies to Turkey and their CBI program whereby you must live 3 years in the country before applying for an e2 visa.

[@OffshoreCitizen]

Yes that's correct as of December you must now have lived there for at least 3 years and be able to prove it

[@RomilCPatel]

Do you think Grenada will cut the cost due to these changes?

[@OffshoreCitizen]

Probably not, but we’ll see

[@KangTheDigitalNomad]

Cut the cost for what?

[@OffshoreCitizen]

The CBI

[@namalanoi4030]

They should down their price now.

[@OffshoreCitizen]

Agreed

[@Johndoe-qn9jr]

Can you do a video about countrys that have lump sum taxes i heard that Italy and Greece have and offcourse as many already know Switzerland ? Thank You

[@knavish]

Would this affect russians who already have Grenada's passport or only new applications?

[@HexAlchemist5555]

I read that one can obtain Caribbean citizenship through birth tourism. I searched your video archive, but was unable to locate any info on it. Perhaps we hear your thoughts about it sometime?

[@dlukton]

If you're going to do "birth tourism," why not go with Mexico or Brazil...?

Damn Grenada was the most attractive CBI in the Caribbean due to China access

Dominica also has access to China now :)

[@KangTheDigitalNomad]

@@OffshoreCitizen how long has Dominica had access to China?

[@malakagirley]

I love my Sri Lankan passport and my country

[@robertgillies9382]

I would certainly be opposed to discriminating against people of a certain nationality. However I really can't see the point of buying a passport with no intention of living in the country of your new citizenship. I am an American who lives in Panama. I also have Panamanian citizenship. But I didn't buy it. I earned it by living here long enough to qualify plus learning the language to pass a test. Now I have a Panamanian passport and I can also vote in elections which I do. If I didn't live here I really wouldn't need it but since I do live here in Panama it helps me here and gives me more rights. To spend 150 thousand on a passport that is crazy. To get Panamanian citizenship cost me maybe 2000. I don't remember exactly as I have had it for 10 years now.

[@RC94332]

Why would you renounce us citizenship to only go back and get essentially a resident visa in the US? You’re right back where you started…

[@OffshoreCitizen]

Because you're out of the citizenship based tax net and avoid all the overseas paperwork nonsense

[@RC94332]

@@OffshoreCitizen well if you live in the US you are taxed that way anyways. Granted I believe you don’t necessarily have to live in the US with an E2 visa but I suspect you’re somehow dealing with the IRS either way. Right?

[@RomilCPatel]

You avoid the tax burden that you have as a US citizen
