ICG says Collapse Looms In Afghanistan

ICG says NATO forces departure can cause Afghan govt. collapse - PanARMENIAN.Net: "the report from the Brussels-based group is stark in its prediction that the Western-backed government in Afghanistan could be on course for what it calls a devastating political crisis after 2014.
It states that "steps to ensure a stable transition must begin now to prevent a precipitous slide toward state collapse. Time is running out."
That same year elections are due in Afghanistan and the report predicts that the forthcoming polls will be as fraudulent as the last ones."
