The USA is the only major industrialised country on the planet that has a rule which says “if you are an American citizen you need to pay American taxes”. Every other major country have rules which are more like “if you live and/or work in our country, you pay our taxes. If you don’t live here, you don’t”. So unless one of your dual citizenships happens to be American, there’s no conflict – you simply pay your taxes like any other resident of the country you live or work in.
