Defense and Social Service: Vienna Mayor Ludwig Remains Cautious

He sees "no reason" for this and, in view of the budgetary challenges, he is "occupied with other topics," Ludwig explained on the sidelines of the City Day in Eisenstadt to the APA.

Military and Social Service: Ludwig Sees "No Reason" for This

In a recent APA interview, Doskozil proposed a mandatory military or social service for both boys and young women. With a social service, personnel for care and social professions could be mobilized, Doskozil was convinced.

Ludwig did not address this proposal. However, he generally stated that work in care requires "intensive training" and a lot of experience, as it is a great responsibility. The number of caregivers needs to be expanded, and this is also happening in the federal capital: "There are good opportunities to attract women and men for this."
