You might be interested to find out how many Congressvermin have dual citizenship. (mostly US & Israeli)
Russia thought that they could claim any descendants of their citizens to the third generation. Everyone else said, touch our people and you will have a problem you would rather not have. So they mostly didn't.
Countries have weird ways of doing things you can only do what is best for your country.
I certainly would be! I did a search and apparently, this information is not "readily" available. I do remember hearing that Feinstein (RIP) was, and maybe Joe Lieberman ... If you have a reliable link or list, I'd appreciate it.
No, I said the child was UNDERage. I remember reading about some gal who married a wealthy Saudi, a baby came along and the marriage went south. Papa took the little one back to Saudi Arabia, and Saudi Arabia said, "Sorry, we will not just hand the kid over because your lawyer says so." Legal nightmare. How it came out, I don't know.

This is an old list; maybe a good starting point. Many are still in Congress.
Prior whatever country they are in, the laws apply.
Which is pretty much what happens now.
Thank you very much!
Happy to help. Please let me know if you find anything more current.
.... and it occurs to me that perhaps there is a reason that this info is so hard to find.
