We thought about this for many years, about France, and decided to make it a reality: the "army" is coming back

In Varces-Alliéres-et-Risset, in front of the troops, with a solemn tone and behind him a large French flag.President Emmanuel Macron took care of the internship on Thursday to make a very sensitive announcement: the return of military service.The famous "military" will return in 2026 as a voluntary benefit of ten months aimed mainly at boys and girls between 18 and 19 years of age, although the Elysée does not hide that, if the circumstances require it, the parliament can give the green light to compulsory recruitment in an "exceptional" way.

France is not the first European country to move in this direction as it stares at the "threat" from a strengthened Russia in Ukraine.

The army (with details) is coming.France will mobilize a new 'army', albeit a subtle one.At an event held at an infantry base near Grenoble, Macron announced on Thursday that the country would begin a "military service" that would be gradually implemented in mid-206.It will be voluntary, aimed at youth aged 18-19 and will last for 10 months.

During this period, recruits receive a monthly salary of between 900 and 1,000 euros, in addition to food, accommodation and train travel discounts.They are promised to be deployed only in "national territory".

One number: 3,000. That's how many young people France hopes to mobilize in the first phase of its new army, although the idea is that the number will gradually increase: from an initial 3,000 to 10,000 in 2030 and 50,000 in 2035 "according to the threat".After completing the training, these civilians will return to the reserve.armed, which would allow the country to build up its military muscle.

France currently has 200,000 active military personnel and 47,000 tanks.The goal, to be clear to the guard, for these indicators to reach 200,000 by 2030, achieving this - will not be cheap for this.The plan emphasizes the location of the cost of 2000 million euros, which the president considers a "necessary effort".

They were seen in the 90s. The Mancial announcement came after the introduction of the public national service (snu), a few years ago.The Government was mocked in 1996. With the truth that he joined in the military service for several years After 2022, and this is the idea of ​​the Government.

"Danger" "can not sit in the French language", the new project "causes the reaction of our European partners throughout our European partners."

His statement comes after General Fabien Mandon, the head of the French armed forces, caused confusion by claiming that France lacked the "strength of character to accept the pain to defend what we are" and "to accept the loss of our children"."We must dispel any confusing ideas that suggest that we will send our young people to Ukraine," Macron was quick to explain.

How come?Words and information are important, but the teaching is very important to all of them. The announcements of President Macron maceron followed, which is a picture that is called by three main elements. The main topic is the conflict between Europe and Russia, Organized War in Ukraine. The second is the doubt that was more than the best-Kure Trump about the US role in Etho. For ten years, one of the keys to EuropeEurope has the right of Washington's Debudent Concanced.

The third reason, which is essential and directly related to the previous one, is the increase in military spending on the continent, controlled within NATO itself.The goal on the table is to provide 5% of GDP to protect.

Outside of France.The fact that France depends on the army (although it is voluntary, has a duration of only ten months and is linked to the obligation that the participants are only used for national missions) is news in itself, but even more so when you put it in this context.have started recruiting women and Lithuania or Latvia have made the same decision.

In France, public opinion favors Macron.A survey conducted by the BBC shows that the majority of citizens are in favor of voluntary military service.To be more precise, the Elbe survey concluded that 73% of the country likes it.The alternative 'military' among the group that causes the most doubts are young people aged 25 to 34 (directly affected), but nevertheless they have the majority of support, 60%.

What has created less unity in the country is the salary announced by the Commission for volunteer soldiers, between 900 and 1,000 euros per month, a figure that France Insumisa criticizes as being "well below the minimum wage".
