The answer

Separating a husband and wife is a grave and forbidden sin, an act perpetrated by devils and sorcerers, as stated in the Quran and Sunnah. Differences in nationality should not be an obstacle to Muslims drawing closer, for superiority in the sight of Allah is based on piety, not lineage or nationality. Whoever seeks to separate a husband and wife must repent to Allah, for their action is from the work of Iblis and his allies.
