AB  - Eritrea gained independence in 1993 in the post-Cold War context of changing regional
political alliances. From the beginning Eritrea‘s relationship with Ethiopia was strained,
and following the Eritrean-Ethiopian war (1998-2000) Asmara encountered increasing
isolation in the international arena.
This paper focuses on aspects of Eritrea’s contemporary political history in the subregional
context. It highlights Asmara’s sour relations with some of its powerful neighbors,
which have been integrally linked to Eritrea being increasingly portrayed as a regionally
destabilizing and terrorism-supporting rogue state. It is therefore argued here that
although Eritrea‘s tactics in its foreign afairs have hardly difered from those of other
states in the Horn of Africa, the prevailing political realities in the sub-region have resulted
in the strategic image of Eritrea as a threat to regional peace and stability.
