for tomorrow's International Day of Conscientious Objectors said the youth spokesman for the FDP parliamentary group Florian Schneider, Bern:
In many countries, conscientious objectors are still worse off comply than their peers, for example, an existing draft. In Germany, the practice of discrimination against conscientious objectors fortunately has found an end. This is one reason why the FDP has strictly opposed the plans for a voluntary extension of the civil service, a de facto extension of the alternative service on conscription service also would result. We liberals want to treat all conscripts and conscientious objectors.
is the Basic Law clearly stipulates that no one should be forced into armed service. The decision against conscription is associated with a readiness in the context of civil, volunteers or Peace Service to engage in our society: in hospitals, nursing homes, care facilities, kindergartens, youth clubs, sports clubs or travel services.
this decision every year tens of thousands of young men in our country. For this they deserve our respect and our recognition.
remains unclear, why should extend to the idea of community service FDP their service is not voluntary. A de facto extension of the civil service is not legal, what is at stake in issues of equal treatment.
