I probably should drop both the inheritance and the citation_id 
altogether, and operate with two separate tables:

CREATE TABLE relation_citations (
    relation_fk INTEGER REFERENCES relations (relation_id),
    source_fk INTEGER REFERENCES sources (source_id),
    CONSTRAINT PRIMARY KEY (relation_fk, source_fk)
);

CREATE TABLE event_citations (
    event_fk INTEGER REFERENCES events (event_id),
    source_fk INTEGER REFERENCES sources (source_id),
    CONSTRAINT PRIMARY KEY (event_fk, source_fk)
);

Is there an easy and non-disruptive way to do this?
