There is a new government and a new president in Germany. SBT Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, as well as the emergency task of rapidly strengthening the country’s security skills.
Before the SPD officially confirmed that Pistorius would continue in office, he presented a New military service modelA plan that SPD and CDU/CSU have already agreed to the Alliance Agreement.
The Swedish model -based military service will be introduced in 2025
Military service Inspired by the Swedish model It will be introduced this year. This means that a new and attractive will be created Military service, initially based on voluntary. It is aimed at fighting the lack of employees in Pandesverr. However, not only Bundesver is not employees; The Association of Reservation is urgently seeking reinforcement.
Bundesver Inspector, Carston Broyer announced last month as Bundesver Required at least 100,000 balance. Currently, the number of residents is about 34,000.
“It doesn’t work without booking”
Chairman of the Reserveists Association, Retired Colonel Professor Dr. Patrick Senserk, said Bundeswar, ‘EuroNius’ You need an active soldier rate for every three reserves.
“For a real security skill, We need 300,000 active players and three reservations. In other words, almost a million residents, “he says. We have been saying for years, this policy has now reached the highest military and political positions: a balance cannot be provided. “
Dr. Sensburg says that A drop -down can not be a real product for safety. According to the Chairman of the Reservation Association, Pandeswar, especially national security work, requires reservation.
Is voluntary military service enough?
Dr. Sensburg, president of the Reserveist Association, according to, You can reach almost a million residents Above all With the service Compulsory army. In Germany, compulsory military service was introduced in 1956, and in 2011, the then CSU Defense Minister Karl-headed Ju Gutberg was suspended for expenses.
Today Compulsory military service has been confirmed in Article 12 of the German Basic Law So, you can re -introduce it. However, it establishes that only men need to do military service. A service inspired by the Swedish model proposed by Pistorius is based on voluntary service, but it is necessary to communicate with men and women.
“In principle, we can see the questionnaire, Is mandatory for young women and volunteer menThis is an important step in the direction of the military list, “Dr. Sensburg agrees.” However, This volunteer military service may not be enough to confirm that we have sufficient reservations To accomplish the tasks of the security policy of our time. “Therefore, the Association of Residents Since 2015 says that the compulsory military service has been reinstated.
“Because only the compulsory military service will guarantee it We will appoint adequate reservation in the coming years To ensure the development of our armed forces and to increase our country’s prevention, ”the President of the Reservation Association explains.
Above all, These statistics can only be achieved with compulsory service. However, there is not only players in the Association of Reservation, but also insufficient equipment. Dr. Sensburg announced the newspaper Rainich Post, “In times of emergency, the residents must go ahead in private vehicles.”
The president of the Reserveistas Association ‘EuroNius’ also stressed the material equipment. “Besides, Internal security forces need adequate material equipment in particularThis is because they are really able to act, and at the same time, it increases personal motivation and commitment, ”Dr. Sensburg said.
Why didn’t Pandesvering expand its reservation?
Armed forces and German reservation are not exempted from bureaucratic obstacles. From The beginning of Russian invasion in large -scale UkraineThe idea of security in Germany and the ability to defend itself is awake.
Former federal Chancellor Olaf Shalz presented his speech “Jeetenvende”, and they have been approved in Pandestec to date Important investments including many special funds. On the other hand, the structures that need to hide security must be slowly up.
Advertisement“Each reservationist is an employee manager, a security control, a uniform needed … all of these need infrastructure People who work them, ”says Dr. Sensburg.
So, Pandesverer is not only the subject of its own armed forces but also It must provide adequate structure and material to 100,000 residents summoned They can be practiced regularly by pistorius. Although reservationists have completed their basic training, they must continue to participate in regular exercises.
However, you need to provide appropriate equipment. In general, Reservations training in the area they trained. This means that an armored infantry soldier is usually practicing in the tank that Pantazwever will eventually offer.
