As for Afghanistan, post-US/NATO exit, all IMF loans taken out by the Kabul regime are null and void as happened after US exit from Vietnam and the collapse of Deim's puppet regime.

Whether NATO's presence was in the country or not, this election would have been a sham from day one. Afghanistan is a poor 3rd world corrupt country with power hungry warlords that will do anything to become president. Do you really think an honest election would have taken place? Just look at America, its a country run on so called "democracy" yet everything is controlled by the government and even the elections are rigged and pre-dertimined by the higher elite. Just like how Ron Paul technically won in 2012 but of course the higher elite thought his reforms when against theirs so they rigged it.

As for Ghani signing the BSA, i doubt it. I believe he said this so he can rack up more votes from the non-pashtun's in Afghanistan who are more in favour of the signing of the BSA as opposed to Pashtuns. Keep in mind that he only said this on a western media outlet like CNN and not to any Afghan news channel.

Well, relatively speaking, the foreign presence makes the "elections" a sham more so than if there was no foreign presence. Democracy is not perfect, stable, and nor an ideal system anywhere.
