Conclusion Summary This Joint Staff Advisory Note discusses Afghanistan's Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper's annual progress report. Afghanistan has experienced a number of extraordinary challenges that delayed its implementation. The security situation deteriorated markedly and has been dominated by the cross-border Taliban insurgency. Growth started to recover from a devastating drought. In May 2008, food and fuel prices peaked, leading to high inflation and pressure on the budget for additional fuel and food subsidies. These threats to macroeconomic stability have been accompanied by a period of political uncertainty for Afghanistan's leadership Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes English Print version record Subject International Monetary Fund -- Afghanistan SUBJECT International Monetary Fund fast Subject National security -- Afghanistan Afghan War, 2001-2021 -- Economic aspects Economic history Economic policy Economics National security Social conditions SUBJECT Afghanistan -- Economic conditions -- 21st century Afghanistan -- Social conditions -- 21st century Afghanistan -- Economic policy Subject Afghanistan Form Electronic book Author World Bank International Monetary Fund ISBN 1452701393 9781452701394 9781451800449 1451800444
