North Korea is making military service mandatory for young women in a bid to strengthen the nation’s armed forces.
The measure is said to apply to women aged between 17 and 20, and has been handed down to mobilisation offices in each province, city, and county. Implementation is reported to be already underway.
“Late last year, we received orders for all women who have graduated from middle and high school to undergo mandatory military service."
Does this action have anything to do with the fact that a senior US State Department official has reiterated that North Korea must show concretely that it's taking steps toward denuclearization?
