A great shortage of soldiers – Västerbottens-kuriren (the Courier)

the armed Forces have a serious shortage of soldiers. It is even larger than what had previously been known, writes the daily News.

When Sweden abolished conscription in 2010 and instead morphed into a defense of professional soldiers, the plan was to 4 000 soldiers would be recruited each year. But the figure turned out to be not realistic. In the year to the employee, for example, about 1 350 people.

another condition for yrkesförsvaret was that they educated the soldiers would stay in between six and eight years. But now stop the soldiers in an average of four years, according to Today’s News sources. In order to compensate for the loss rate would the armed Forces need to employ an additional 1,000 troops per year.

on Wednesday, the government’s investigators present their proposals in order to secure the defence requirements of human resources.
