As of 2018, both countries underwent transitions that held out the prospect of a more democratic, civilian administration and improved regional stability, according to the report. Despite rising tensions, Chatham House stated, the conflict now seems unlikely in the wake of conciliation between the two countries leaders. “If border disputes are not resolved, tensions may rise once more, endangering regional stability and hurting economic, development, and humanitarian outcomes,” said the report.
