Mária Schmidt writes in her opinion article published on the website of PestiSrácok that "we must continue the reform of healthcare, education and national defense. We need to rethink the reduction of general conscription (both men and women). (It would be worthwhile to initiate a national consultation on this.) After all, as we can see, the war has not disappeared from the world at all, not even from Europe, in fact it is taking place on our borders".
The ATV news channel contacted the Ministry of National Defense regarding the statement to find out what they think about the proposal, whether they agree with it.
Mária Schmidt's position on conscription is the private opinion of the professor, and in no way corresponds to the government's position"
