Which of the following countries are members of the European Union? 1. Belarus 2. Poland 3. Germany 4. Switzerland Select the answer using the code given below:

Poland is a member of the European Union, having joined in 2004. Germany is a founding member of the European Union (and its predecessor, the European Economic Community). Belarus is not a member of the EU; it is closely aligned with Russia and is part of the Eurasian Economic Union. Switzerland is also not a member of the EU; although geographically surrounded by EU states, it has chosen to remain outside through bilateral agreements. Hence only Poland and Germany (2 and 3) are EU members.
