Military service in Croatia has not been abolished but suspended, and all decisions on the security situation in view of the Ukraine war will be communicated as part of the forums, institutions, and organisations of which Croatia is a member, Interior Minister Davor Bozinovic said on Thursday.

“Military service hasn’t been abolished but suspended. We pay a high level of attention to security. The Defence Ministry’s budget has risen from 4.5 billion kuna to 7.2 billion kuna through the procurement of multipurpose fighters jets, the decision to integrate and buy Bradleys and a score of projects in the homeland security system,” he told the press.

There is voluntary military training through which future professional soldiers are recruited and reservists who are part of the Armed Forces are activated, Bozinovic added.

He said the security situation was being discussed and that all future decisions “will be communicated.”

“Everyone is watching what is happening in Ukraine. Croatia is a member of NATO and the EU and everything that is done is coordinated within the forums, institutions and organisations of which it is a member,” Bozinovic said after a meeting of the government’s task force for the reception of Ukrainian refugees.

He said radioactivity measuring had been stepped up and that there was no danger.

He added that the former Radiology and Nuclear Safety Institute had been integrated into the Interior Ministry and that local governments were responsible for shelters.
