Jön a kötelező sorkatonaság a horvátoknál

Andrej Plenkovic, the Croatian Prime Minister, announced the reintroduction of mandatory military service due to changed global security conditions. The revised laws aim to equip younger generations with necessary skills and strengthen the Croatian army. Mandatory service will begin in January 2026 for men turning 18, with provisions for voluntary service for women. Training will last two months in various locations, and participants will receive a monthly salary. Alternatives for conscientious objectors include civil service options. The law outlines conditions for deferral and exemptions.
