Correct:
D
Explanation
Latvia does not share a border with Poland. Authoritative country profiles state that Latvia’s land neighbours are Estonia to the north, Lithuania to the south, Russia to the east and Belarus to the southeast, with a coastline on the Baltic Sea [1]. Detailed border descriptions and maps enumerate Latvia–Estonia, Latvia–Lithuania, Latvia–Russia and Latvia–Belarus boundaries and do not list Poland as an adjacent country, confirming that Poland is not a land neighbour of Latvia. Hence option (4) Poland is the correct answer.
