意大利最高法院的最高级别小组周日做出裁定，根据该国历史公民法规定，已获得意大利公民身份的儿童在其父母后来获得外国国籍时不会自动失去意大利公民身份1。这一裁决推翻了自2023年以来对相关法律的限制性解释1，使得全球意大利侨民的后代能够更容易地通过血缘原则（iure sanguinis）申请意大利公民身份1。
这项裁定的影响范围广泛，包括在美国等出生时自动授予国籍的国家出生的儿童1。根据律师马尔科·梅隆的估计，数十万个家庭可能受到近年限制性解释的影响1，其中尤以北美和南美的意大利后裔最为集中1。与此同时，由外交部长安东尼奥·塔亚尼倡导的一项法律提案已提交欧盟法院，该法案旨在限制更远代系公民身份的传递，预计将在明年启动诉讼程序1。
Italy's Supreme Court of Cassation has ruled that children who acquired Italian citizenship will not automatically lose it if their parents subsequently obtain foreign nationality.1 The decision, handed down on Sunday and announced on Wednesday, reverses a restrictive interpretation that has been in effect since 2023.1 The ruling applies to descendants born in countries that grant automatic citizenship at birth, such as the United States.1
The judgment is expected to benefit hundreds of thousands of families globally, particularly Italian descendants in North America and South America.1 Legal expert Marco Mellone estimates that hundreds of thousands of families may have been affected by the recent restrictive interpretation.1 The ruling was issued by the Supreme Court's highest-level panel, known as the Sezioni Unite (United Chambers), applying the principle of jus sanguinis—the right of blood—which has governed Italian citizenship law historically.1
A separate legislative initiative championed by Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani aims to restrict the transmission of citizenship to more distant generations and has been submitted to the European Court of Justice, with litigation expected to proceed next year.1
