"The Iraqi state will cost a lot of money" .. Parliamentary bloc: We do not need to serve the flag
Shafaq News/ The Kurdistan Democratic Party bloc in the House of Representatives saw, on Saturday, that the country does not need to legislate a compulsory conscription (flag service) law because there are huge numbers of members in the ranks of the armed forces and security services of all kinds.
This comes at a time when the House of Representatives is scheduled to hold a session tomorrow, Sunday, whose agenda includes the first reading of the science service bill.
"We currently need to intensify the efforts of the government and parliament with regard to the economic file, because the people suffer from a lack of job opportunities, unemployment and poverty," Majid Shankali, a representative of the Kurdistan Democratic Party, told Shafaq News Agency, stressing that this file is more important than going to the militarization of society, as youth must be contained. .
He added, "Today, we do not need the law of compulsory conscription and military service," justifying this by saying, "We have approximately one million and 250 thousand security personnel in the Ministries of Interior, Defense, the Popular Mobilization and the rest of the security services."
Shankali also pointed out that "the effort should be focused on finding investment and development projects, and providing job opportunities for unemployed youth and graduates, instead of militarizing society."
The parliamentarian for the Kurdistan Democratic Party also noted that "the compulsory conscription law will cost the state huge sums, and we need the expenses in the next stage to be commercial so that we spend the money and it comes after another period of money."
Shankali continued, "I will not support the law of service of science and not believe in the militarization of society, and in the past there were very few volunteers who used this law for wars and others, but now we do not need the law and it is better to use the money that will be spent to implement industrial and agricultural projects."
The Parliamentary Security and Defense Committee recently confirmed that the 2023 budget will include allocations for the compulsory service law.
Committee member Hussain Al-Amiri told Shafak News Agency, "The adoption of the budget will solve many problems, including the compulsory service law, which addresses the problem of unemployment in society and is an alternative to volunteering," explaining that "there is an intention to approve the compulsory conscription law in the current parliamentary session." .
On (August 31, 2021), the former Iraqi government headed by Mustafa Al-Kazemi approved, "in principle", the draft compulsory service law, and referred it to the Iraqi Parliament.
And former Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi pledged to pass this law before the end of the current parliamentary session, because political differences prevented it.
And the Security and Defense Committee in the Iraqi parliament had previously announced the readiness of the compulsory service law in the country for approval by Parliament, and stressed the importance of this law at the current stage, and indicated that its approval requires “will and political consensus.”
And the Ministry of Defense announced in the year 2020 sending a draft of the compulsory conscription law to the State Shura for legal review.
Military service was mandatory in Iraq until the overthrow of the former regime in 2003, and the US civil administrator Paul Bremer dissolving the former Iraqi army and re-establishing a new army based on volunteering rather than conscription.
