Serbia is preparing to reinstate compulsory military service after more than a decade, with the aim of strengthening the defense capabilities of the Armed Forces.

Compulsory military service will be imposed on men aged 18 to 30, while it will remain voluntary for women. Defense Minister Bratislav Gasic has stated that the training period for recruits will be 75 days.

"Everything necessary has been done so that we can return compulsory military service. We have conducted countless analyses and tests, starting with the optimal time for these young men to receive basic military training," said Bratislav Gasic.

Gasic emphasized that those who will perform this service will be paid.

"Of course it will be different from before, as they will receive a salary while serving in the Serbian army. It is planned that the first 60 days they will sleep in the barracks and 15 days they will be in camp positions in the training structure. From 2000 to 2012, the Serbian Army was reduced to the level of civil defense, with only 3,500 men, no aviation and empty depots," he continued.

Gasic recalled that since 2012, significant efforts have been made to rebuild infrastructure and equipment, which is essential for the security of the Serbian Armed Forces.

Minister Gasic also praised the improvement in the status of professional soldiers.

"I would also like to brag about the 10,000 soldiers who are on contract, as they have been given the opportunity to have a permanent contract and await retirement there."

Previously, contracts were extended every three years, leading to the loss of trained staff at the age of 53. Now, they can stay in the army until retirement, men until 65, women until 63,” the Minister of Defense said.

Gasiy described the year 2025 as difficult, but extremely successful for the Ministry of Defense and the Serbian Army.
