1. Armenia

2. Azerbaijan

3. Croatia

4. Romania

5. Uzbekistan

Which of the above are members of the Organization of Turkic States?

(a) 1, 2 and 4 · (b) 1 and 3 · (c) 2 and 5 · (d) 3, 4 and 5

उत्तर और व्याख्या · explanation in English

Answer: (c) 2 और 5

Of the five countries, only Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan belong to the Organization of Turkic States. As of 2022 its members were Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Türkiye and Uzbekistan; Armenia, Croatia and Romania are not in it.

  • ✓ 2. Azerbaijan is one of the five member States listed by the Organization.
  • ✓ 5. Uzbekistan is also a member State, so 2 and 5 together give the right code.
  • ✗ 1. Armenia is on neither the official list of members nor the list of observers.
  • ✗ 3. Croatia is on neither the official list of members nor the list of observers.
  • ✗ 4. Romania is on neither the official list of members nor the list of observers.
  • • note The 2022 listing shows Hungary, Turkmenistan and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus as observers. Membership and observer status can change at later summits, so check the Organization's current page.

Remember · Organization of Turkic States members (2022): Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Türkiye, Uzbekistan. Hungary and Turkmenistan were observers.
