Only two pairs

Answer

All three pairs

None of the pairs

Explanation

Pairs 1 and 2 are correct. Argentina has been facing hyperinflation and a severe economic crisis. Sudan is embroiled in a brutal civil war between the SAF (army) and RSF (paramilitary). Pair 3 is incorrect; Turkey is an active, strategic member of NATO and did not rescind its membership, though it delayed Sweden's accession.

Turkey is NATO's second-largest military force and heavily leverages its membership; it has never sought to withdraw.

Answer: (b).
