Yes that is fine BUT please include that SWEDEN DOES allow dual citizenship and I know that for a fact because I know 2 Americans who have become swedish citizens and have not been required to give up their U.S. citizenship and I know Holland allows dual citizenship as well also because I know a couple of Americans who have become Dutch citizens and keep the American one. Please include Sweden and Holland because
Denmark often compares itself with those 2 countries. I think it is GREAT to mention the problems that Danes have in relation to this issue because that shows that it does not only effect us who want to become Danish but also Danes that may want to become a citizen of another country without giving up their birthright to be Danish. I may have lobbied to get this up to debate in the folketing but you sure are a lot better then me to get others excited and involved. Fine text if at leasr sweden and maybe holland are included but the main thing is your great idea to include how this is a problem for born Danish citizens as well I thank you VERY MUCH and i hope you can have the text in Dansk and English but this is so great and it is up to you of corse! lOOKING FORWARD TO YOU EMAIL TOMMOROW

This should be a single sentence. The part beginning "thereby" is not a complete sentence by itself, so should be combined with the preceding sentence. You can separate them with a comma instead of a period.
