The Netherlands is preparing a phased return of military conscription:
"The Dutch Ministry of Defense is developing a new model of military service that will gradually bring back conscription if the security situation worsens. According to Defense Minister Derek Boswick, the current system, under which recruitment has been effectively suspended since 1997, is no longer compatible with the current threats.
The new program will be introduced in stages. First, young people may be required to fill out a questionnaire, and then undergo an introductory interview and medical examination. The last option is a call to active duty. At the same time, the Ministry of Defense emphasizes that the main rate for now remains voluntary recruitment, and mandatory recruitment is only considered as a measure in the event of a serious crisis or armed conflict."
