More detail about Turkey

Military Service is Required for Men in Turkey

Turkey is one of a few countries in the world where military service is mandatory for some members of the population. This is critical because Turkey is a country that is essentially the bridge between Europe and the Middle East. Its proximity near many different affairs in the Middle East makes it an important country to review with regards to its military.

Turkish law states that all men in Turkey between the ages of 19 and 41 must enter the military. Military service duration periods will vary by each person. This depends primarily on the position that a person is in. For example, a private will have to follow fifteen months of military service.

There are some exceptions to the rule. People who are studying in a university may be allowed to delay service until they are done with their studies. Also, some people might be allowed to delay their service commitments until their late twenties depending on the studies that are being used.

This has helped to give Turkey a strong military. It is estimated that there are more than fifteen million men in the Turkish military. This includes those in the three key parts of the military. These are the Turkish Land Forces, Turkish Naval Forces and Turkish Air Force.

Women are not obliged to serve in the military in Turkey. However, women can voluntarily get into the military if they want to. The country will allow women to serve as officers in the military.

There are some concerns about the way how this required service is impacting some people. There have been a number of cases where people who oppose mandatory military service have fled the country and into places around Europe. These people will generally look to seek asylum in different parts of Europe as a means of avoiding this service.
