Italian defence ministry sources
have said that a return of obligatory military service for young
people is not on the cards after Interior Minister Matteo
Salvini proposed it.
"(Defence) Minister (Elisabetta) Trenta expressed her opinion
on this subject days ago," the sources said.
"It's a romantic idea but our military personnel are, and
must remain, professional and there is agreement with Salvini on
this".
