The US Institute of Peace published on 29 October 2020 a report titled "Senior Study Group on Peace and Security in the Red Sea Arena."
This major report looks at the Red Sea region as a shared political, economic, and security ecosystem comprised of the eight states of the Horn of Africa (Djibouti, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Kenya, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, and Uganda) and the states of the Middle East whose intensifying engagement is one of the most significant developments affecting the region. It defines US interests within a hierarchy of priorities to assist policymakers in calibrating diplomatic, development, humanitarian, and security interventions.
