Or it could be because of... https://www.jstor.org/stable/26363914 https://www.jstor.org/stable/26363914 Which is the situation that led to the conflict in Ukraine in 2013/14 - an IMF loan that was up for renewal with harsh structural adjustments. The IMF / WB consistently consult with NGOs and allow them to heavily influence their policies. You can point to four success stories of countries accepting IMF loans and recovering. There are 86 to 91 developing countries as of late 2025 that are still indebted to the IMF, especially in Africa. It's a monetary tool for Western hegemony. Pretending it's anything else is disingenuous.
