LOL the west loosing power, give me a break. The US and Europe is stronger than ever. Yes there’s demographics problems and so on but China “the third power” our manufacturing place is definitely not as strong as people think, they’re the ones dependent on the west not the other way around. India, Mexico and Brazil will all continue to grow but are decades away and maybe will never get there. More over is that’s South America (with a few exceptions like Venezuela and Cuba) all side with the free world, just like Japan and South Korea. I think India soon will follow suit. This is of course because money for the most part and the west is clearly ahead here so much so that other ideas is just laughable. 😂

@@algogeminus by charging you all the taxes they want in the citizenship giving up application fees..? I guess you can't just flush your passport down the toilet and move on.
I think the EU has a point. If they allow visa free access to citizens of a country and that country starts selling citizenship, it makes sense that they could rescind the visa free travel.
They allow visa free access to lots of poor, corrupt, drug or human organ traficking countries (from Albania, Kosovo to Moldova, Brunei). So what can possibly go wrong if they additionally let in a few people who have money? Hundreds of thousands of people used fake birth certificate to get Romanian citizenship by descent in the last 10 years. How are they better than a random rich guy who passed a thorough due diligence check?
But with illegal immigrants and welfare seekers no issue they can stay and enter to EU much as they want that's the failed EU policy. I 100% prefer Singapore than EU and west because zero tolerance policy towards illegal immigrants and welfare seekers while extremely friendly policy towards investors.
How can you get mad at the immigrants that choose to live in a country that bests suits them, when this channel explains and encourages how to do exactly that Besides a good half of them aren't even illegal, seeking asylum is completely legal but requires you to already be inside the host country. As long as you enter via a legal point of entry, you don't break any laws in the host country. These people aren't necessarily poor or uneducated either, people from Ukraine and Syria for example, some of them were decently wealthy and we'll educated, but had to flee because of conflict. In the case of Syrians, they couldn't easily get access to a safe country visa, so they instead choose either walk to Turkey and gain refugees status, or fly to Germany/Sweden to gain refugees status. Not gonna lie though, I have seen for example Indian refugees claiming to be Afghanis or the like in order to sneak their way into the EU or US, that is criminal, not only because they are lying but because they take away a slot for an actual refugee.
That is why the west will collapse and the east and south will rise. Asia, Africa and Latin America are growing. Europe and North Amerikkka are going down the toilet.
They also love police cameras on every corner and no civil proceedings. Offending someone is criminal court. Maybe you have really good temperament and fall in line living a boring life.
I need you to understand this,it is intentionally done the European and western countries will be filled with nothing but immigrants,homeless and poor people.They don’t like people with money because they do there best to keep you poor.I really never understood the fact to punish the top 15% instead of continuing to build the bottom 85%.Because when you punish the top 15% they will all leave and you won’t have any capital within the country anymore.

Typical leftist reasoning. How in the world can someone elses fortune be a negative thing. Being rich is not a zero sum game, there's enough for everyone that is allowed by their high taxing social liberal governments to try and work hard and save. Some people are better than others though. The world need to protect itself from this kind of woke reasoning.
You mean "productive" people... the ones that make your food, housing, medicine, and Internet connection so you can complain about them. The rich thieves in the .govs are never oppressed.
I do not agree with EU overregulation, which certainly exists in abundance, however the notion that the EU is "forcing" other countries to change their domestic policy is disingenuous. The EU/Member States have a fundamental right to decide who crosses their borders and under what terms and to increase due diligence where they perceive problems. And so long as free movement of labour and capital exist within the EU (something the libertarians would love), this needs to be managed at a supranational level.
Regulation never benefits you in Europe. It always benefits you as the customer.

The best passport’s in the world seems to be from the Middle East and some countries in Africa. The amount of citizens from these regions that are allowed into Europe is staggering.
That doesn't mean their passports or are good or sought-after. It means the corruption of the EU is so astounding that they can destroy the lives of native EU peoples with the stroke of a pen - bringing in mostly men from 3rd world countries, especially African countries, who have no education, no job skills, no regard for humanity. The EU politicians live only by their purse strings which are controlled by the the most corrupt billionaires in the world. There is no other reason to allow people with no regard for human lives to enter and destroy the lives of native EU peoples. The US has done the same. Corrupt evil politicians around the world are colluding with elite, evil billionaires to destroy cohesive societies. The US was and is the poster child for how to destroy cohesive societies.

1. Europe wont be relevant soon enough so their demands will grow weaker 2. These Caribbean countries are not really sovereign and hence one should question whether thats the best passport to obtain for such a price tag
I agree with both of your points, especially #2. The EU uses its visa free access scheme as a weapon to win submission from the Carib nations, reflected most recently in the memorandum signed by all the nations with CBI programs. Whenever the transition to a multipolar system is complete, many won't consider access to Europe so valuable anymore.
@@C1K450how are the Spanish Caribbean nations still dependent on their colonial “masters” pray tell? I don’t see how Cuba, Dominican Republic are in any way dependent on Spain.
With enough money you can always buy your way around almost any regulation. But what makes this akk totally absurd: LOOK AT THE NUMBER OF ILLEGALS COMING INTO THE EU AND UK AND UK!!! With no ID, with fake ID. So the EU spouting about National Security is just absurd. The Caribbean price hike is just about annoying the Russians, I get that.
It's about replacing the European natives but forcing them to pay for their replacement, if the upper middle class leaves then the is not enough money to pay for mass immigrants.
I think the whole Schengen area, if not the EU should be dissolved. A common wealth and or unified background check for immigrants make sense, but the centralized governance that the EU has assumed over such a large geographic area of sovereign independent nations is too much, and counter to the concept of democracy.
@@kalpetkoff why do you say that? I just came back from a short visit to France and upon my return, I watched lots of video by American expat in France and Germany. Seems like life in US for regular folks is harder.
I am glad that the EU is excersising its sovereignty and doesn't give free EU visas lightly. People from outside the EU are not entitled to come and go in whatever ways they want.
Hypocritical like most Western European countries… so it’s fine if the EU says no more immigrants, but when member states like Poland or Hungary didn’t want them, they were vilified. The EU will be good once it’s gone.
HAHAHAH. Funny. It's becoming Republic of Islam. Just arrive in the continent as a refugee and you will get housing and subside for your living costs.Meanwhile there are stupid people paying riots of many to get permanent residency. It's a joke
The US does no different and yet no one thinks that is a problem. But when the EU flex their muscles it is wrong. I don’t mind the EU making it more difficult for rich people. They have plenty of money and it’s still not enough, they keep wanting more at the cost of others. No freeloaders. Living in a tax paradise, hardly contributing to local economy, still keep your original citizenship as a backup, but without paying the taxes. The EU should revoke citizenship of rich people fleeing for tax reasons. Pay your dues to society like everyone else.

As a European I would like to see it made illegal when having an EU passport, to own any other passport from any other country, inside or outside the EU. Visa's are another story. Western Europe has since WorldWar2 been just vasal states of the US. Just as Eastern EU has been from the USSR. With the US powers now waning and imperialism from other regions vying for the number 1 spot, it's all going to be much more ... restrictive. As for Western Africa booting France? Sure, is great, if not for the fact the new powers there are pro RUS or CHN and we already see Wagner losing badly against the Extremist Islam and not giving the support the French did. Funny how people like to talk about the EU, but still want to come here.
The US won't let anyone go from paying taxes. They forbid certain people and that number grows. Eventually when it becomes a dictatorship, you won't be able to leave. Russia is learning that lesson now. Putin fighters, the ones he was counting on, left.
Norway is already doing the exit tax as well, although its only for assets/values you have in the country. Thanks to this EU friendly of Støres government. Maybe swtizerland , Lux, Liech is the only free exit tax atm

Im dual citizen myself but this pick and choose mentality without any thoughts of contributing and integrating or only as little as possible and thinking only about ones personal benefits and gains its understandable why nations all over the world want to limit it.

It is legitimate that EU countries implement regulations because many people who could get quickly an “easy” European nationality actually want to access the whole EU without intention to live in the initial country itself.
This is the type of behavior of those "circling the drain". The EU wanted this from the start. They wanted to try to control everyone to make them more powerful and they have done a pretty good job so far. Combining the power of all member states to make a powerful central currency. They took peoples' freedom so they can become more powerful. They will make it harder for people to leave but also less appealing for those to join.
And what is the problem here? If some countries choose to give away their citizenship to whoever can pay, without even properly checking the people, that's their choice. Nobody says they are not allowed to do it. But we have no obligation to let them in. Keep your rights and let us have ours.
if it helps: citizens of the 30 schengen members (plus San Marino Monaco Andorra and Vatican) can come and go whenever they want. 60 other countries are eligible for ETIAS (if it would launch today) which is for short stay (for up to 90 days within any 180-day period) and nothing else. residence and working permits are a total different bunch of bureaucracy ! citizens from El Salvador and Malaysia are eligible for ETIAS btw. and all 5 mentioned caribbean CBI are onboard as well. especially for caribbean CBI the "access to Schengen" is a sale argument, so the caribbeans play nice. they cannot boast about ESTA or visa free access to Canada or Australia because they are not on those lists so ETIAS is their crisp cookie to wave. ;) all participating countries must adhere to schengen rules and remember: any visa policy is up to the host, not the guests; sorry to burst a bubble

Here's why this is the European Union's business after all: the EU has granted these countries visa-free access to the EU based on the very same parameters that you mentioned in the video, namely, that they are peaceful countries which don't bother anyone and whose citizens generally pose no risk. With their citizenship by investment programs the risk profile for these countries' citizens has changed, where potentially undesirable people from, say, China and other countries can now access the EU by the back door. This isn't some internal policy by these countries that the EU intervenes with, as it affects the EU directly.

As Dutch citizen we are not allowed to have second citizenship, period. Unless we give up our dutch passport/citizenship, which sucks and limit our options.
What we really need (I'm not dutch, but "we" like human beings) is an independent location that doesn't do the passport/citizen thing. We should be able to just go somewhere and not be categorized and controlled, and be able own property and live as free people, and if a tax farm country comes looking for their lost slave, we simply give them a shrug and don't comply. Then we can keep the citizenship we have in case it ever matters, but in the free place it just doesn't matter.
Germany has just made it easier to get German citizenship for those lovely migrants pouring in to the country since 2015. You know the ones who were all without any documents whatsoever, but ALL were from Syria, named Mohamed, born on January 1st and of course "minors under age 18" even though having beards like ZZ Top. Of course, that will apply to the numerous other people they can bring in as "family". Germany is in Schengen. So, sooner or later places like Hungary has to worry about the next wave of invasion from the west by "Gernans"! (AGAIN! Like that has not happened before.)
I like some ideas on this channel, but the passport-hunting is quite unbecoming. Especially when you're selling these ideas to wealthier and not-so-wealthy first-worlders who end up buying property and/or moving to poorer nations thus increasing prices for locals who end up displaced in their own land. I hate what Medellín, Colombia is becoming. Average Colombians cannot access good property there anymore because it's been bought off by foreigners with stronger currencies. Anyway, time will tell, but I have a feeling these people will fly somewhere else once their neighbors ressemble what they'd left behind. Kinda like predators.
There is also a big push of the European population to make EU passports incompatible with other passports. This means that when you have a Carabin passport and you want a European passport, you have to give up your Carabin passport. Of course this goes both ways.
Even worse is when you have EU passport, but live outside EU and can't have a second passport. Bureaucracy in Eu and some countries within is ridiculous

Personally, I possess 2 EU Passports, and I may not be the best person to say this... but, in this moment where europe faces wave after wave of migration and a majority is starting to form on the right side of the political spectrum, I find it only normal that EU policy should start to reflect its constituents opinions. By starting to impose on people buying these Carabean passports, it is in my mind purely inconsecvential because the people being affected can find suitable alternatives to this "problem"."The EU has no problem in adopting the "my way or the high way..." and the official policy is to coerce other countries to the european mindset( see green agenda for reference...) where you respect the EU recommendations on green policy or you find other trade partners. So this trend will continue becase its fuel down by internal and external factors, and tbh I find no problem with that because I find it quite the natural evolution given the problems that the western countries face.

I think ETIAS will only be given to people who are born in the Caribbean. Meaning when they check your Caribbean passport during ETIAS request and they see you are born in another country, they will reject you downright. This is equal to removing VISA free access.

Exactly, it is not possible to ignore the context.
It’s already difficult in Switzerland and why their politics are consistently conservative and they pass down generational wealth (land and homes) making home ownership for new comers difficult unless you’re super wealthy.
LOL the west loosing power, give me a break. The US and Europe is stronger than ever. Yes there’s demographics problems and so on but China “the third power” our manufacturing place is definitely not as strong as people think, they’re the ones dependent on the west not the other way around. India, Mexico and Brazil will all continue to grow but are decades away and maybe will never get there. More over is that’s South America (with a few exceptions like Venezuela and Cuba) all side with the free world, just like Japan and South Korea. I think India soon will follow suit. This is of course because money for the most part and the west is clearly ahead here so much so that other ideas is just laughable. 😂

I think the EU has a point. If they allow visa free access to citizens of a country and that country starts selling citizenship, it makes sense that they could rescind the visa free travel.
They allow visa free access to lots of poor, corrupt, drug or human organ traficking countries (from Albania, Kosovo to Moldova, Brunei). So what can possibly go wrong if they additionally let in a few people who have money? Hundreds of thousands of people used fake birth certificate to get Romanian citizenship by descent in the last 10 years.

But with illegal immigrants and welfare seekers no issue they can stay and enter to EU much as they want that's the failed EU policy.

How can you get mad at the immigrants that choose to live in a country that bests suits them, when this channel explains and encourages how to do exactly that
Besides a good half of them aren't even illegal, seeking asylum is completely legal but requires you to already be inside the host country.
As long as you enter via a legal point of entry, you don't break any laws in the host country.
These people aren't necessarily poor or uneducated either, people from Ukraine and Syria for example, some of them were decently wealthy and we'll educated, but had to flee because of conflict.
In the case of Syrians, they couldn't easily get access to a safe country visa, so they instead choose either walk to Turkey and gain refugees status, or fly to Germany/Sweden to gain refugees status.
Not gonna lie though, I have seen for example Indian refugees claiming to be Afghanis or the like in order to sneak their way into the EU or US, that is criminal, not only because they are lying but because they take away a slot for an actual refugee.
That is why the west will collapse and the east and south will rise. Asia, Africa and Latin America are growing. Europe and North Amerikkka are going down the toilet.
They also love police cameras on every corner and no civil proceedings. Offending someone is criminal court. Maybe you have really good temperament and fall in line living a boring life.
I need you to understand this,it is intentionally done the European and western countries will be filled with nothing but immigrants,homeless and poor people.They don’t like people with money because they do there best to keep you poor.I really never understood the fact to punish the top 15% instead of continuing to build the bottom 85%.Because when you punish the top 15% they will all leave and you won’t have any capital within the country anymore.

Western Europe has since WorldWar2 been just vasal states of the US. Just as Eastern EU has been from the USSR. With the US powers now waning and imperialism from other regions vying for the number 1 spot, it's all going to be much more ... restrictive. As for Western Africa booting France?

citizens from El Salvador and Malaysia are eligible for ETIAS btw. and all 5 mentioned caribbean CBI are onboard as well. especially for caribbean CBI the "access to Schengen" is a sale argument, so the caribbeans play nice. they cannot boast about ESTA or visa free access to Canada or Australia because they are not on those lists so ETIAS is their crisp cookie to wave. ;)

With their citizenship by investment programs the risk profile for these countries' citizens has changed, where potentially undesirable people from, say, China and other countries can now access the EU by the back door.
This isn't some internal policy by these countries that the EU intervenes with, as it affects the EU directly.
tell me something: Have you ever heard or seen any report of any of these investor citizens overstaying their time in Europe or breaking any European immigration laws? I follow this space closely and I have not seen or hear any such report. The fact is, if someone can afford to invest $100K USD to become a citizen of a country, why would they then go and waste their time spying or planning acts of terrorism or espionage in Europe? That argument makes no sense to me.

I agree with you that in general it makes no sense for a wealthy Chinese or a citizen of another country who would otherwise require a visa to go to Europe to be a bad actor.
However, bad actors who aren't genuine CBI applicants can easily take advantage of this workaround.
Regardless, this is for the EU to decide if they accept the risk. Portraying them like the U.S. sanctioning other countries for internal policies the U.S. has no business meddling with is a false equivalence.
Bitcoin participants don't worry about criminal organizations such as the EU. With Bitcoin's decentralized and secure nature, they can operate independently of corrupt institutions, knowing their wealth is protected and free from manipulation.
Borders are closing by design
The EU needs a massive overhaul. I am an Orban fan. Ursula Vander Lagan and all prime ministers except Poland and Hungary must go!
I would never have citizenship in any EU country, period.
EU is not a country 😅😂
Yet... But, this is the Endgame.
Waning power in what way? China has stalled, India can't get manufacturing off the ground (they only do well in services and some areas of manufacturing), Russia is ageing and ruining it's demographic dividend. Meanwhile the US has overtaken the entire EU in terms of GDP, and is seeing record job growth and the stock market is up, yes there are problems for young people but then again America is a lot older as well (on average) so overall the average American is still doing quite well.
The big mistake has been to print all leaflets in a myriad of foreign languages as this prevents people bothering to learn the language and integrate into the host country.
Assimilation is a bad word now thanks to politicians everywhere. It’s good to be old. This world has gone so far in the wrong direction. It is unrecoverable now.
Check paraguy lots of dutch people go there
And Uruguay. Lots of Dutch farmers going there to escape the draconian climate BS in the Netherlands.
I want EU citizenship because of the opportunities it would give me in Eastern Europe without any restrictions. I do agree though, I wish they focused on more important things instead of smacking around smaller countries who didn't do anything wrong
As Dutch citizen we are not allowed to have second citizenship, period. Unless we give up our dutch passport/citizenship, which sucks and limit our options.
What we really need (I'm not dutch, but "we" like human beings) is an independent location that doesn't do the passport/citizen thing. We should be able to just go somewhere and not be categorized and controlled, and be able own property and live as free people, and if a tax farm country comes looking for their lost slave, we simply give them a shrug and don't comply. Then we can keep the citizenship we have in case it ever matters, but in the free place it just doesn't matter.
Germany has just made it easier to get German citizenship for those lovely migrants pouring in to the country since 2015. You know the ones who were all without any documents whatsoever, but ALL were from Syria, named Mohamed, born on January 1st and of course "minors under age 18" even though having beards like ZZ Top. Of course, that will apply to the numerous other people they can bring in as "family". Germany is in Schengen. So, sooner or later places like Hungary has to worry about the next wave of invasion from the west by "Gernans"! (AGAIN! Like that has not happened before.)
They are called „Facharbeiter“ in Germany. Honestly, Germany is now like the UK 30 years ago.

If dual, pick one (matters not which one). You cannot serve two masters.
I like some ideas on this channel, but the passport-hunting is quite unbecoming. Especially when you're selling these ideas to wealthier and not-so-wealthy first-worlders who end up buying property and/or moving to poorer nations thus increasing prices for locals who end up displaced in their own land. I hate what Medellín, Colombia is becoming. Average Colombians cannot access good property there anymore because it's been bought off by foreigners with stronger currencies. Anyway, time will tell, but I have a feeling these people will fly somewhere else once their neighbors ressemble what they'd left behind. Kinda like predators.
Everybody wants a better life. We have to adjust to whatever happens.
There is also a big push of the European population to make EU passports incompatible with other passports. This means that when you have a Carabin passport and you want a European passport, you have to give up your Carabin passport. Of course this goes both ways.
Even worse is when you have EU passport, but live outside EU and can't have a second passport. Bureaucracy in Eu and some countries within is ridiculous
I got korean citizenship in 2012, after 5 years working without leaving a day. Cant do it that way now. Nor was it my focus to get, but it's on my back pocket. And let's me go to n korea.

Europe gave the world most of the consumers goods and the tecnology to produce them. And Europe was able to invent those things because of its culture and values. It's safer and much more fare for the majority of its citizens than most countries in the world. And really tries to combat the climate change (caused by humans!) , that is the biggest threat to all the humanity.
So Europe has ALL the rights to do the sanctions politics.
This reads like a paragraph written by a middle schooler. You gotta open your eyes to what your teachers are not telling you kid.
@Jean-vf3pi this kid is 34 y.o. and saw "poor asylum seekers" in Europe with the last model of iPhone and a knife in the pocket to get the money for the next model, saw what haitians do in my home country - Dominican Republic and how the cities change with the massiv influx of immigrants . And before I saw those things, I was very lefty and open borders activist. Now I see that civilization is difficult to achieve and it's a work of generations or personal hard work. We can not take in every barbarian who comes, that don't want to assimilate, that destroy our society and just want to benefit from better economy. Or who saying that he escapes from terrorism in their country, but afterward create new terrorist or criminal organization in the new land. I saw it in my life, in crime statistics, in urbanistics throughout the years . And it's very bitter to realize it.
Personally, I possess 2 EU Passports, and I may not be the best person to say this... but, in this moment where europe faces wave after wave of migration and a majority is starting to form on the right side of the political spectrum, I find it only normal that EU policy should start to reflect its constituents opinions. By starting to impose on people buying these Carabean passports, it is in my mind purely inconsecvential because the people being affected can find suitable alternatives to this "problem"."The EU has no problem in adopting the "my way or the high way..." and the official policy is to coerce other countries to the european mindset( see green agenda for reference...) where you respect the EU recommendations on green policy or you find other trade partners. So this trend will continue becase its fuel down by internal and external factors, and tbh I find no problem with that because I find it quite the natural evolution given the problems that the western countries face.
the future is BRICS
future yes but the question is what kind of future ?
Nope
Good luck
An exit tax for the Netherlands is beinbg prepared. Horrible.
So alk criminals buy some passport and are entering in EU. My house , my rules if you don't like it go somewhere else
I don't understand your point. Setting one's immigration policy IS NOT intervening in other countries affairs. Also I would really like to see any data supporting your claim that small island countries use profits from hosting offshore companies for something good
Walk across a border... welcome! Arrive by boat... welcome! Tourists... jump through hoops and pay a fee!😂😂
Just pay your taxes...
People with russian, iranian and some other nationalities have got their career chances significantly reduced in many if not all Eu countries

And it rhymes with pee-yew!

how to know ur 5 years to late to exit ur country (holland)
Just leave. Don't ask permission, don't inform them of anything, make it look like you will return but then don't. Create a refuge for your family somewhere, where they can go when they're ready.
It's a matter of security people fail to see the bigger picture. Suppose a person fails to gain entry to a country they now manage to get a passport from a country that allows you free entry to other countries that have signed up to an agreement for free movement and one of those countries was the one they got refused to.
While they allow millions of immigrants in without any background checks? It's obviously NOT about security.

I think ETIAS will only be given to people who are born in the Caribbean. Meaning when they check your Caribbean passport during ETIAS request and they see you are born in another country, they will reject you downright. This is equal to removing VISA free access.
Surely it would depend on which country you are from originally. But yes ETIAS is probably a way for them to vet people and keep out those they don't want.
What national security??? Eu i stitutions have marocan /africans security guards😅😅😅😅😅 mafia union
ugh lol weather prince or pauper it’s looking like planet refuge now
The whole purpose is (as I expected to this and worse to happen) keep people (or serfs, or laborlivestock or however u wanna refer to it) locked, chained to the area. Whole history of humanity ppl were bound. Just by different means
Totally agree!!
Thank you Andrew
Thank you!
Those passports give rights to access EU so it’s not a surprise they don’t want to sell it like a ticket.
Europe just seems like a museum for tourists. What else do they really offer?
