Malta to ID buyers of its citizenship after outcry

“Malta’s government has rolled back one element of its controversial law to sell its citizenship for 650,000 euros ($865,000), saying it will publish the names of people buying their way into European Union passports.  The government had argued that keeping the names secret would have brought in more money — the key goal of the initiative. But the government withdraw the secrecy clause ‘after listening to the people,’ according to a statement late Sunday.  The opposition Nationalist Party has vowed to repeal the law and revoke all the citizenships sold if the party returns to power.”
