🇪🇪⚡️ — Estonia may eventually be forced to introduce mandatory military conscription for women as falling male birth rates threaten the country’s ability to meet defense manpower targets, according to TVP World.

Head of Estonia’s Defense Resources Agency Anu Rannaveski says the number of boys born annually has dropped from around 15,000 in previous generations to roughly 4,000–5,000 today, raising concerns that Estonia will not be able to fill its planned 4,100 yearly conscription slots by 2040.

The NATO member currently requires military service only for men, while women serve voluntarily, but Rannaveski described compulsory female conscription as increasingly becoming a question of “when, not if.”
