Germany
Germany held 86 Bundeswehr camps last year compared to 55 this year, with events expanding. Left Party MP Desiré Becker calls for a ban. Despite Germany signing a UN protocol against under-18s in military, the Defense Ministry states minors only receive career guidance, not combat roles.
The claims regarding Bundeswehr camps and their numbers have no clear evidence or authoritative sources confirming the figures provided. Therefore, these claims lack verification. There are no corroborating sources about events like "Boots on the Ground" expanding in Germany. Germany's adherence to the UN protocol is supported by clear evidence confirming Germany's commitment to child protection in recruitment processes. The Ministry of Defense's claim about minors receiving career guidance is consistent with available information that juveniles in the Bundeswehr do not participate in combat roles.
