Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich criticized Lithuania’s efforts to review its citizenship law, which allowed his children to obtain the Baltic nation’s passports.

Lithuanian Interior Minister Agne Bilotaite said on Wednesday that her ministry is drafting an amendment that would give the government broader rights to strip people of citizenship on national security grounds.
