Ashraf Ghani has secured a second term as president of Afghanistan, according to final results announced Tuesday 18, February 2020, lining him up to become the man negotiating with the Taliban over the war-torn country´s future if the US agrees to withdraw its troops. The results came nearly five months after the September 28, 2019 poll, after vote-rigging allegations by Ghani´s main rival, Abdullah Abdullah, who served as Afghanistan´s chief executive, forced a recount.

Election commission Chief Hawa Alam Nuristani said Ghani had taken 50.64 percent of the votes, compared to Abdullah´s 39.52 percent.
