התאזרחות — מוצא מקרבן רצח-העם הפונטי (דרך משטר בני-האומה של ברית-המועצות לשעבר)

תרחישים לדוגמה

• Eligible to ACQUIRE Greek nationality under the FSU-ομογενείς facilitated route — files with the Greek consulate, ethnicity assessed by the consular committee, decision by the Regional Citizenship Director, oath within one year. NOT via any 'genocide' statute.

  Adult ομογενής from a former-USSR country whose nationality cannot be ascertained under the Ankara/Lausanne Conventions falls squarely within Code Art 15 as modernised by Art 39 L.4604/2019. The genocide is evidence of Pontic-Greek origin, not a legal ground; L.2193/1994 confers no right (GR-EV-056, GR-EV-057).

• She is most likely ALREADY Greek by descent — proceeds by DETERMINATION (ascertainment), not Art 15 acquisition. The Region authority ascertains pre-existing nationality; she does not 'naturalise'.

  Where Greek nationality CAN be ascertained on the basis of the Ankara and Lausanne Conventions, Art 15(1)(b) excludes the facilitated-acquisition path and Art 25(2) ΚΕΙ governs determination (διαπίστωση) of pre-existing nationality through a Greek-national ancestor. Acquisition and determination are mutually exclusive at the threshold (GR-EV-098, GR-EV-056).

• Uses the Art 10 abroad ομογενής route (facilitated naturalisation through the Greek Consul in Germany), NOT the FSU-scoped Art 15 mechanism, because he no longer resides in a former-Soviet-Union country.

  Art 15 is expressly FSU-domiciled-scoped; a Pontian ομογενής who has left the FSU proceeds under Art 10 ΚΕΙ (consular declaration + 2 Greek-citizen witnesses → Minister of Interior with an ethnic-origin report → Arts 8/9), with no Greece-residence requirement (GR-EV-055, GR-EV-056).

• May historically opt for the ex-USSR ΕΔΤΟ (Special Identity Card for Co-Ethnics) — a residence/work status, NOT citizenship — under L.2790/2000, avoiding the loss of home-country nationality; otherwise proceeds under Art 15 if willing to acquire.

  L.2790/2000 Art 1 paras 11-14 created the ex-USSR ΕΔΤΟ precisely for ethnic Greeks who would lose their home-country nationality on acquiring Greek citizenship; it is a distinct non-citizenship status from the Art 15 acquisition route (GR-EV-105, GR-EV-104).

• NOT eligible under this route. L.2193/1994 confers no citizenship right, and Art 15 requires ομογένεια (ethnic-Greek origin), which she lacks; she would need an ordinary naturalisation track (Art 5, 7-year residence + ΠΕΓΠ exam) if otherwise qualified.

  L.2193/1994 (ΦΕΚ 32/Α'/11-3-1994) is purely commemorative with no nationality clause, and Art 15 / Art 39 L.4604/2019 keys on ethnic-Greek origin, not on being a genocide-victim descendant in a social sense; the genocide is evidence of ομογένεια, not a substitute for it (GR-EV-057, GR-EV-056).
