 SENAFE, Eritrea (AP) - Eritrea, struggling to rebuild after decades of conflict, is sinking deeper into poverty amid a simmering border dispute with Ethiopia that already has sparked one war between the longtime Horn of Africa enemies.
Meager resources are being diverted from development to security, minefields keep farmers like Genet Kidane from working the land and investors are wary.
"My husband, who used to help cultivate food for the family, has been in the national service all these years because there is no peace," Genet, a 24-year-old mother of two, said outside a white tent that has turned brown with dust.
