Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

The correct choice is: “28”

Croatia joined the European Union on 1 July 2013 as its 28th member, so in May 2014 the EU had 28 member States.

The number later fell to 27 when the United Kingdom left the EU on 31 January 2020, which is why the time context matters. “24”, “36” and “22” were never the correct count in 2014.
