ESTA: one passport eligible, other not

ESTA: one passport eligible, other not - Free stock photo of achievement, adult, adventure

I have an European passport (the country where I live in at the moment) and also a non-EU passport that is not eligible for ESTA (VWP) (Not one of: Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria or Yemen).

The new ESTA form confuses me right now. It asks me these questions:

Have you ever been issued a passport or national identity card for travel by any other country?

Well, yes, right? I'd say "yes" because I have the non-EU passport, right?

Okay well, let's pretend I said yes....

How is the next question different from that one above?

OTHER CITIZENSHIP/NATIONALITY

Are you now, a citizen or national of any other country?*

It looks like I should say "yes" on both of them, correct?

Would this bring me in trouble because I have a non eligible passport as well? I have been to the USA a couple of times, but never seen these questions before.
