kv7jw2oPeople who volunteer take up the empty spots. If there are more volunteers than there are spots, then nobody will be forced to serve, regardless of the lot they draw. But if fewer people volunteer, those with the worst lots will be forced to serve.
The new policy doesn't change that system directly, but the longer period of service and slight increase in number of conscripts will likely change the balance. Probably fewer people will volunteer for an 11 month period than for the current 4 month period, and since they're simultaneously slightly increasing the number that will serve, it's quite likely some will end up being forced to serve.

kv7lqkuthanks for explaining.
4 to 11 months is a big change! do you think the law will pass?

kv7nbhnIt's hard to say, they may have to adjust it depending on how negotiations go.

kv7nxsethanks for talking to me about this. what is your opinion of conscription in general? do you think it's actually necessary?

kv8uu8kIt's has been 12 months earlier.. like back in 2005-ish. So, there have been some years with peace and now it's new times.

kv953q2Yes. The government holds the majority in parliament. It might get some small adjustments, but by and large, if the current government says something will become law, they'll already have talked it out amongst themselves, and so it will become law.
