سياسة إيران تجاه القرن الأفريقي بعد الحرب الباردة

Abstract EN

The issue of Iranian policy towards the Horn of Africa has a great importance, due to the place of Iran and the importance of its policy in the region, as well as because of the importance of the Horn of Africa in the regional and international perception.

After the decline of Iran's interest in Africa including the Horn of Africa, because of the 1979 Islamic revolution in Iran and the outbreak of the Irani-Iraqi War (1980-1988), but with the end of the Irani-Iraqi war, it ushered in a new phase in Iran's foreign policy, where it did reconsider its external relations with the countries of the outside world, including Africa, and to seek to strengthen its relations with the countries of the Horn of Africa.

There was a motive for the Iranian policy to strengthen its role in the Horn of Africa, including with regard to the direction of Iranian foreign policy, and some with regard to the advantages possessed by the Horn of Africa from a geographic and economic position.

Successive Iranian governments have succeeded in developing Iranian relations with the countries of the Horn of Africa in the political, security, economic, cultural and humanitarian fields.
