Conservative Democratic Party

Strongly agree

Yes

The Conservative Democratic Party (BDP) in Switzerland generally supports the current Swiss system of mandatory military service for male citizens. Switzerland has a long tradition of mandatory military service, and the BDP, as a center-right party, is likely to support maintaining this tradition.

Agree

Yes, but with less focus on military training and more focus on education and skill development

The BDP might be somewhat open to the idea of focusing more on education and skill development within the context of mandatory military service, as it could help prepare young people for the workforce and contribute to the country's overall economic development. However, this is not a primary position of the party, so the score is low.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only for those who do not pursue further education or employment

The BDP might be somewhat open to the idea of requiring military service only for those who do not pursue further education or employment, as it could be seen as a way to provide opportunities for young people who are not engaged in other activities. However, this is not a primary position of the party, so the score is low.

Neutral

Yes, and it should be at least two years of service

There is not enough information available to determine whether the BDP would support extending the length of mandatory military service to two years. The party's primary position is to maintain the current system, which requires one year of service, so it is unclear whether they would advocate for a longer service period.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but only for those who are starting to build a criminal record

The BDP might not strongly support the idea of requiring military service only for those with a criminal record, as it could be seen as discriminatory and not in line with the party's overall support for mandatory military service for all male citizens. However, the score is not strongly negative, as the party might be open to discussing alternative forms of service for individuals with a criminal record.

Disagree

No, service should be a choice instead of an obligation

The BDP's support for mandatory military service implies that they would disagree with the idea of making service a choice instead of an obligation. However, the score is not as strong as for Answer 2 because the party might be open to discussing alternative forms of service.

Strongly disagree

No

As mentioned earlier, the BDP supports the current Swiss system of mandatory military service. Therefore, they would likely disagree with the idea of not requiring military service for 18-year-old citizens.
