How can we remedy the shortages in the army?
There are concepts of how to fix the state of the army. These solutions do not necessarily affect recruiting people into the military. Like the erstwhile issue of communism, there has now been a debate in Europe about restoring universal military service.
Finland's president Alexander Stubb suggests that Europeans should act more effectively on safety issues, as should the Finns, who discuss threats little frequently and are taking more action to reduce them. Stubb's proposal includes the restoration of a universal draft to the army that Finland has never abandoned.
In consequence to Russia's annexation of Crimea, Sweden, Lithuania and Latvia restored universal military service. The Danish government has announced that women will besides be called into the army. Croatia plans to reconstruct the universal download, which was suspended in 2008 after joining NATO. Croatia's preferred option is 3 months of basic training for 17 000 men, with the anticipation of women volunteering.
Finland. A large country, with a tiny population. A country that stood up to Stalin and didn't let him beat him. A country where there's a mandatory draft. A prosperous country with planet brands. The country whose MEPs voted against the Treaty amendments in the Euro-Parliament from the left.

However, there is simply a request to grow the barracks infrastructure. Germany, Denmark and the United Kingdom besides have akin infrastructure problems, which even wonders about the creation of a "civil army" due to the decline in the number of volunteers.
