The sentence relates a piece of reasoning, as indicated by the presence of "so that": asking for the assistance of foreign technocrats would be counterproductive because of the effects such technocrats have had already. This means that the technocrats must have bad effects; i.e., they must have "exacerbated" or "worsened" the country's problems.
Thus the correct answer is Choice D (exacerbated) and Choice F (worsened).
Thus the correct answer is Choice D (exacerbated) and Choice F (worsened).
