Because of its Nazi past, post-war Germany developed a pacifist political culture and avoided acquiring the advanced warfighting capabilities possessed by European peers Britain and France. The programme, launched in 2018, aims to fill a gap left when Germany abolished conscription in 2011. Germany’s Bundeswehr has around 180,000 active personnel with plans to expand to 203,000 by 2031. It has just 60,000 reservists, but plans to more than triple this number. After completing it, trainees assist active-duty personnel and civilian organizations such as the German Red Cross, and are responsible for safeguarding infrastructure in the event of a national or NATO defence scenario. Do you think that Europe need civilians to undergo military trainings due to Russian-Ukraine war ?
