What do you mean by "US law expressly permits dual citizenship?" I don't think there is a law explicitly states one is allowed to hold multiple citizenship but rather there is no law against it, so it is allowed by default, and the US supreme court has upheld this right. The answer under "Is Dual Citizenship with the USA Allowed?" in https://www.nnuimmigration.com/dual-citizenship-usa/ is my understanding.
The US can’t control what another country considers a citizen. Some countries may not allow you to renounce citizenship, and there’s nothing the US could do about it.
That was not my point. My point is whether "US law expressly permits dual citizenship." While there is nothing US could do if someone naturalized in the US and the other country does not allow the person to renounce its citizenship, there is certainly something that US could do (if chooses to) if the naturalized person continue to act in a way that is contrary to the oath. Moreover, dual citizenship can also result if a US citizen naturalized in another country, and the US could revoke one's citizenship in this case. Although currently US does not revoke one's citizenship in the case, some countries do, for example, I think one loses Dutch citizenship in this way, https://www.government.nl/topics/dutch- ... itizenship Even though US citizens do not lose citizenship automatically in this way, I don't think it is by explicit law but rather how the Supreme Court interpreted the constitution in the 1967 case that was mentioned in the link I gave. I believe this is the case. https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/387/253/
