A debate regarding the reintroduction of mandatory military service in Peru has been revitalized, with senators Juan Carlos del Águila and Iber Maraví voicing their support for its evaluation. The service was suspended in 1999, but lawmakers are now highlighting its potential benefits for both citizen formation and national defense. Both senators believe revisiting the possibility is worthwhile. The push for reconsideration comes from across the political spectrum, with support noted from the Fujimorismo political group and Juntos por el Perú. Advocates argue that mandatory service could contribute to a stronger sense of civic duty among young Peruvians. The discussion is expected to continue within the Peruvian Congress as legislators weigh the advantages and disadvantages of reinstating the program.
