ERITREA: STUMBLING BACK INTO ISOLATION

   Mon, 20 May 2019

Ahead of upcoming Independence Day celebrations, Eritrea’s government has shut down social media services and shuttered border posts with Ethiopia and Sudan. The country has seen few real benefits from its peace agreement with Ethiopia last year and risks stumbling back into political and economic isolation, even tough a resumption of cross-border war remains unlikely and economic and geostrategic imperatives will force a continued opening of Red Sea trade routes.
