Alan Boswell @alanboswell Oct 7

I have a new essay out in @ForeignAffairs about how the Horn of Africa is getting sucked into the Middle East at an ever accelerating pace-- and about how the hard division between the two regions was always ahistorical.

Grateful to @adam_tooze and @ishaantharoor for their shout-outs to my recent essay in @ForeignAffairs on the "New Red Sea Wars"

As the UNSC is due to meet later today to discuss, @CrisisGroup issues a warning about how dangerously close we are to a new #Ethiopia-#Eritrea war.

Ethiopia & Eritrea have edged ever closer to conflict. Pulling them back from the brink of war should be the priority for all those interested in preventing a deadly chain of interconnected conflicts from snaking across Africa's Horn and Red Sea regions.

I discuss here how very close we are to a new #Ethiopia-#Eritrea war, the broader regional and Red Sea dynamics, and why much-needed deescalation will be very hard.
