Q27. Consider the following pairs :
Country Reason for being in the news
1. Argentina Worst economic crisis
2. Sudan War between the country’s regular and paramilitary forces
3. Turkey Rescinded its membership of NATO
How many of the pairs given above are correctly matched?
Detailed Solution
Pair 1 is correctly matched: Argentina has been grappling with a severe economic crisis, characterized by high inflation and debt issues. Pair 2 is correctly matched: Sudan has been in the news due to an ongoing civil war between its regular army and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) since April 2023.
Pair 3 is incorrectly matched: Turkey is a founding and active member of NATO and has not rescinded its membership. While Turkey's foreign policy has sometimes created tensions within the alliance, it remains a member.
Therefore, only two pairs are correctly matched. This question tests knowledge of recent international current events.
