After an extended COVID-19 lockdown, North Korea has given the green light
for its citizens to return home from abroad. The move comes as a

made external information scarce, making any update on internal matters
noteworthy. It remains to be seen how this reopening will affect both the
citizens and the overall situation in the secretive nation.
