no European country grants citizenship based on unconditional jus soli.

Doesn't Ireland?

Doesn't Ireland?

Ireland On 1 January 2005, the law was amended to require that at least one of the parents be an Irish citizen; a British citizen; a child of a resident with a permanent right to reside in Ireland or In Northern Ireland; or be a child of a legal resident residing three of the last four years in the country (excluding students and asylum seekers) (see Irish nationality law).[31] The amendment was prompted by the case of Man Chen, a Chinese woman living in mainland United Kingdom who travelled to Belfast (Northern Ireland, part of the UK) to give birth in order to benefit from the previous rule whereby anyone born on any part of the island of Ireland was automatically granted Irish citizenship. The Chinese parents used their daughter's Irish (and thereby European Union) citizenship to obtain permanent residence in the UK as parents of a dependent EU citizen.

I think the OP is looking specifically for a Schengen EU country. And yes, after Chen, Ireland wizened up to the jus soli loophole and held a referendum to amend the constitution to tighten the rules.

To the OP: Does your wife have a Schengen travel visa or does she have a right to work in any EU country?

As Vinny has already mentioned, no country in the EU provides for unconditional jus soli, which allows for the child to take citizenship based on where s/he is born. The main requirement typically is that one parent should be a permanent resident of the country before the child is born for the child to become a citizen of the country by birth in that country.
