U.S. immigration officials have declined to comment on the children's' status, citing privacy rules, but note that any person born in the United States is a citizen by right, except in certain cases involving the children of diplomats or other foreign government workers.
No,no,no.
Don't tell me we have actual employees of the United States Government who are going to argue that these kids are birthright American citizens! BTW, aren't spies usually later deemed to be diplomats? Or at least "government workers"?
At the very least they are illegal aliens, or should I say "undocumented immigrants".
I feel sorry for these kids, but their parents must be some committed commies to actually use kids this way to establish their creds.
The KGB takes care of its own. The kids will not suffer.
