美國和古巴上月恢復外交關係；本星期古巴釋放了一批政治犯。就像當年中美恢復正常關係帶來一個新的中國一樣，一個新的古巴也許從2015年開始了。
古巴國籍法律的現狀是，不允許雙重國籍，剝奪持雙重國籍的本國國民的出生國籍。
而且，這種剝奪是直接通過國家法律來宣示的。
對於雙重國籍，古巴憲法是這樣寫的: “古巴不承認雙重國籍。所以，當一個人取得外國籍，其失去古巴國籍”（“Dual citizenship is not
recognized. Therefore, when a foreign citizenship is acquired, the Cuban one
will be lost.”）
對本國國民的出生國籍的尊重，和法律上對出生國籍的保護，是一個文明社會的最基本的標誌。正因為如此，聯合國《世界人權宣言》明確宣示：“不得任意剝奪一個人的國籍”。在中國幾個“傳統盟友”中，俄羅斯和越南等國家都已經先後改變國籍法律和國籍政策為不剝奪一個人的出生國籍，從而在不承認雙重國籍的同時允許雙重國籍。拭目以待古巴的雙重國籍法律和政策的變化。
古巴用法律剝奪剝奪持雙重國籍的本國國民的出生國籍的現狀，可以成為一面鏡子，藉以比較中國大陸的不剝奪出生國籍的國籍法律，藉以比較和中國國籍法律相背離的由中國國務院僑辦主導的剝奪出國人民的出生國籍的國籍政策。
