This paper examines the situation in the Horn of Africa and suggests what the US needs to do to address the multiple challenges to regional stability. The report calls for a dialogue with Ethiopia and Eritrea to resolve the border conflict, something that would also contribute to stability in Somalia. The author argues that failure to resolve the Ethiopian-Eritrean dispute could exacerbate governance, health and humanitarian problems, and set back US efforts to fight terrorists increasingly drawn to the area.
