While Iran seems to be far from the Horn of Africa, its participation in the war in Yemen as well as its strategic position both along the land route and the maritime route of the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative make it an unavoidable party. Iran is operating on the Horn of Africa to extend its strategic depth, resist the pressure of rival powers and counterbalance their activities, and increase its political and economic gains. Compared to other Gulf states, Tehran started its campaign relatively late, and Iran\u2019s economic potential is more limited as well. The lack of significant Shi\u2019a presence in East Africa is also an obstacle for expansion. Therefore, Iran is still a secondary actor on the Horn of Africa.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Late-comer Friend: Iranian Interests on the Horn of Africa &nbsp; Authors: Viktor Marsai, Erzs\u00e9bet N.
