Ethiopia and Eritrea sever diplomatic ties

Original: Why Ethiopia and Eritrea have severed diplomatic ties

Ethiopia and Eritrea have severed diplomatic ties, according to reporting by The Business Standard. The move marks a dramatic rupture between the two Horn of Africa neighbours, whose relationship had appeared to warm after the 2018 peace deal that ended two decades of hostility following the 1998-2000 border war. Details on what prompted the breakdown and how it will affect regional stability remain limited.

Why now: A sudden break in relations between two countries recently seen as reconciling has major implications for Horn of Africa stability.
