Plans to re-introduce military service in Germany have been thrown into chaos because of an 11th hour row amongst the governing parties. A compromise, which was set to include the possibility of some mandatory conscription, has been shot down.

Berlin is now rushing to boost spending and personnel, with warnings that members of the Western Nato alliance must prepare for a possible Russian attack within four years.Germany wants to expand its armed forces from the current 183,000 active servicemen and women to 260,000 by 2035 – plus 200,000 reservists.
