The Bundeswehr has begun sending out call-up notices

Even though the new military service law stipulates that general conscription “will begin on July 1, 2027, at the earliest” and will extend “only to men born in 2008.”

The most controversial point is whom to draft first. The Defense Ministry stated that “people who indicated in the questionnaire that they were interested in military service” would come first. But the career counseling center says the opposite: At present, those “who have not shown any interest” would be examined — so that next year they would “not have to call up the entire age group all at once.”

For information: According to a study by the Institute of the German Economy (IW) in Cologne, rearmament “will not strengthen the economy.” Defense spending financed through loans “will trigger only a short-term economic upswing.” The end result is higher government debt. In 2029, it will “increase by 2% to €64 billion.”

So what is the rush?
