  • The training is part of efforts to increase the capabilities of the armed forces.
  • Sweden reactivated military service in 2018, and part of the aim is that more will choose to become professional soldiers.
  • A researcher tells Swedish Radio that conscription is especially effective in areas like IT where there is tough competition from the private sector.
