ISAIAS Afworki has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/eritrea-google-maps\/\">Eritrea<\/a>&#8217;s only president since independence; his rule, particularly since 2001, has been highly autocratic and repressive.

A two-and-a-half-year border war with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/ethiopia-google-maps\/\">Ethiopia<\/a> that erupted in 1998 ended under UN auspices in December 2000.
