He believes that it is an inevitable step, and this year.
He said OTE, although the Federal Government preferred the voluntary principle, he would insist as a military commissioner at the re-introduction of a military obligation.
According to him, the burden on the soldiers must not grow, but it is necessary to increase the number of those who serve.
He added that the current system based on volunteers is not sufficient for the needs of the Bundesver. On the other hand, the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) is not agreed with this position, transmits DW.
OTE cited the example of Sweden, where there is a mandatory army, and said he was talking to young people who show an increasing readiness for the service in the German army.
Defense Minister of Germany Boris Pistorius earlier said earlier that the Bundesver needs an additional 60,000 soldiers, to what he replied that it should be clearly explained how to achieve it.
According to him, the military obligation would be introduced only for men, because the inclusion of women would require a change in the Constitution. He reminded that the mandatory military service in Germany continues to be legally legally in force, but in 2011. it was suspended, which in practice meant his abolition.
He also suggested that the service in the Bundesver is better financially valued and rewarded.
