Germany has unveiled a proposal to permit foreign citizens from outside the European Union (EU) to enlist in the Bundeswehr, the military force. The German defense minister, Boris Pistorius, disclosed the proposal, emphasizing the need to bolster troop numbers by recruiting an additional 20,000 personnel in response to perceived threats from Russia.

Regarding the visa aspect, Deutsche Welle reported that the plan, initially aimed at citizens of non-EU foreign countries, might soon extend to encompass individuals from European nations outside the EU.

Under the newly proposed scheme, Germany aims to attract foreign citizens to join its military forces. The goal is to increase the pool of army recruits as part of a broader strategy to ensure the readiness of the army within a timeframe of no more than five years. Selected individuals participating in this program would have the opportunity to expedite their acquisition of German citizenship, bypassing prolonged procedures.

 

According to Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann, a member of the FDP and chair of Germany’s defense committee, who spoke with Deutsche Welle, the proposed scheme to recruit foreign citizens into the Bundeswehr is not limited to European non-EU countries. She envisions expanding the program beyond Europe, starting with recruitment from countries like the UK and gradually extending to others.

In her interview, Strack-Zimmermann clarified that she couldn’t provide further details at the moment, citing the need to follow specific procedures. She highlighted that allowing individuals from other nationalities to join the German army could offer an opportunity for those born and raised in Germany without German citizenship.

The Minister of Defense in Germany emphasized the urgency of preparing the country’s army within a five to eight-year timeframe, indicating the need for changes to current laws to meet this timeline.
