Le chef de l’Etat devrait en revanche annoncer « une grande refonte » du SNU dans « les prochaines semaines ».
Macron states that the return of mandatory military service is not a "realistic option" for France. He plans to announce a major overhaul of the SNU (Service National Universel) in the coming weeks to better meet national needs. While acknowledging growing support for some form of mandatory service, Macron believes France lacks the infrastructure and logistics for conscription. He is exploring options to strengthen the military reserve, potentially inspired by proposals from Édouard Philippe for a voluntary military service.
